                    The heroes of this world think not of self. Think of the everyday heroes or rescue workers we hear of these days. They see what needs to be done, or who needs to be saved and they do it before they analyze their role in the matter. It is in that act of forgetting our self, in a constructive way of

                    Quiet mounds of earth,
Erected crosses;
So many souls,
So many losses.
 
This special day
Has been set aside
To honor those
Who, for us, have died.
 
May we hold dear
Every gain and loss,
And ne’er forget
What’s beneath the cross.
 
Thank you, dear Lord,
