'Preparing their Memorial Day'

I know there will be many, 
Expressing their thanks and gratitude...
On this, a holiday
To those they once knew, 
Who were in their lives...
Doing the best they could do, 
To show and proved to others...
How much they loved them too.

 

I just know...
Those preparing their Memorial Day, 
Planning family bar-be-cues...
And spicing their favorite drinks, 
With assorted purchased booze...
Relaxing in the Sun and enjoying fun.
'Someone'...
Will be expressing their blessings.
