We take each day as it comes <br />We fret, we worry and fuss <br />About the smallest little thing <br />We truly think we must. <br /> <br />But when we stop and think <br />About how very lucky we are <br />We see our beautiful flag waving <br />See each lovely shining star. <br /> <br />Then think of how we got here <br />How our peace has stayed that way <br />Then remember our American Heroes <br />And our freedom every single day. <br /> <br />Then bow our heads in thankfulness <br />For the heroes who have fought <br />Yes, they stopped their lives <br />And freedom is what they sought. <br /> <br />We thank you and love you every one <br />As war after war you stood so tall <br />For you are our American heroes <br />You stood up for that freedom call.<br /><br />Marilyn Lott<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/to-our-american-heroes/
