Looking at these men, old and grey.
They fought for the freedom we have today.
I wish I could thank each a special way.
I'm thankful to all of them everyday.
Myself I'm a veteran of wartime too.
Though I'll never know what they went through.
Many sad faces I see there everyday.
Sometimes I overhear as they pray.
It's fitting for me to be here and share.
Knowingly smiling even when they stare.
All are here because of poor health.
Sharing their knowledge, that's pure wealth.
Most know me by name as I walk by.
Many smile as we both simply say "hi".
All are heros in my minds eye.
Blessed are they from the Lord in the sky.
