In honor of those who gave it all
Dear Readers, given that this last week was Memorial Day, I felt it only right to postpone the scheduled blog and instead posting a poem in honor of those who gave it all.
Sincerely,
Richard M Polk

Rejected but not alone
We, your defenders, stand on this precipice
Viewing the invading army below
We are the remaining few of a thousand strong
Your last line of defense
Tonight it ends
Tonight we give our all
This is our duty
This is our sacred right
We honor those who went before us
By defending those who stand behind us
The sun dips below the horizon
The Captain smiles and signals his men
Their time is upon them.
