Memorial Day

by Edgar A. Guest

The finest tribute we can pay
Unto our hero dead to-day,
Is not a rose wreath, white and red,
In memory of the blood they shed;
It is to stand beside each mound,
Each couch of consecrated ground,
And pledge ourselves as warriors true
Unto the work they died to do.
[Complete poem here.]

who has no natural regard for his ancestors or his kindred...is himself unworthy of kindred, or remembrance."
