As a
country, we have been blessed. Through the sacrifices of those who have served
we can enjoy
the freedoms we have today. In these troubling times, it is even more
important that we realize the significance of those who sacrificed. It is
their sacrifice and their conviction to our country that we honor. As
Americans, it is something we should always appreciate and never take for
granted. Because of them, we can
live the life we live today. Without them, there would be nothing to
celebrate, no spacious skies or purple mountains majesty to enjoy. To our Veteran's still serving and to those who gave their lives, not just on Veteran's Day, but every day, we honor
you and thank you for your service. Welcome to the Light A Candle in the Dark website. Light A Candle in the Dark is a poetry website created to share my poetry and the poetry of others who have a love for reading and writing poetry. It is a place where poetry is loosely defined. It's a simple joy of the written or spoken word. It is not a forum for discussing technique or the contents of the poetry posted herein. Welcome and enjoy! Pat (aka P. Newman-Harris)
