Pearl Harbor

Pearl Harbor

By Marty Lewinter

I think of those who died for me,

Who gave their lives for liberty,

Whose graves are found on distant shores

Their young lives lost in freedom's wars.

I feel the loss of those cut down -

The gloom and tears in some small town

When fearful word of snuffed-out lives

Dashed the hopes and dreams of wives.

I see their ghosts . . . I hear their call,

Grim spirits pained but standing tall,

"Remember us - we died for you,

Make sure our land stays just and true."
