Life's Simple Pleasures on Memorial Day

Nancie    Norton
Life's simple pleasures
Being FREE to speak our minds
In AMERICA

Life's simple pleasures
A Holiday spent with friends
Memorial Day

Life's simple pleasures
A child's Mother comming home
From fighting the war

Life's simple pleasures
A childs Father comming home
From fighting the war

Life's simple pleasures
A song on the radio
Reminds him of her

Life's simple pleasures
Reading a letter from home
Catching up on news

Life's simple pleasures
Hearing the voice of his Wife
Comming through the phone

Life's simple pleasures
Hearing his children's laughter
In a call from home

Life's simple pleasures
Hearing her children speaking
In a call from home

Life's simple pleasures
Are not as simple for some
Change happens quickly

Life's simple pleasures
Pleasure doesn't come easy
When fighting a war

Have you stopped lately to think about how
"simple " our simple little pleasures here at
home really are?....And how hard it is for our
men and women fighting this war to have
"Simple Little Pleasures"?

Please, say a little prayer today for our Men and Women in
combat....and wish for them " A Simple Pleasure".....
