Blue Star Riders on Memorial Day in Utah (May 31, 2010)Blue Star Riders Observe Memorial Day in Utah:
We bow our heads in silent grace; Proud to stand upon this Place. To honor those who we love and lost; whose lives were taken at such a cost. Through the pain and sorrow, for all the brave and true; To always be remembered by me and by you.
To heal the minds and hearts, of those who still live; Always remembering what they had to give. Live your lives with pride in hearing what I say; May God bless and keep you on this, and every day. (by Mark A. Wright) |
