“On This Memorial Day” by Emily Toma was published by Family Friend Poems in June 2014:       
 
“Remember those who served before.
Remember those who are no more.
Remember those who serve today.
Remember them as we eat and play.
Remember our protectors
who are not home today.
Remember them all on Memorial Day.”
