That war word, has been given meaning yet again, <br />As we meet in the shadow of the twin towers <br />Seeking to remember those who died <br />In what seems so long ago, freedom remains illusive. <br />Freedom from fear, freedom to speak, freedom to worship. <br />So on this day, we say our thanks, with gratitude <br />To the names etched here long ago. <br />Remember with pride the sacrifice they made for us <br />Remember to the young who fight today <br />To keep that flame of freedom lit <br />Throughout our world, for all people <br />Remember to that single sacrifice <br />On a hill outside Jerusalem, <br />The one who called the world to love <br />Whose words inspire today’s, humanity <br />To seek that which is the ultimate power <br />To love your neighbour as yourself <br />The greatest challenge of all. <br />To become powerless, in a world <br />That seeks for power by domination<br /><br />James Tipp<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/remembrance-sunday-2001/
