We Remember Them

At the rising of the sun and at its going down
	We remember them.

At the blowing of the wind and in the chill of winter
	We remember them.

At the opening of the buds and in the rebirth of spring
	We remember them.

At the blueness of the skies and in the warmth of summer
	We remember them.

At the rustling of the leaves and in the beauty of autumn
	We remember them.

At the beginning of the year and when it ends
	We remember them.

As long as we live, they too will live, for they are now a part of us as
	We remember them.

When we are weary and in need of strength
	We remember them.

When we are lost and sick at heart
	We remember them.

When we have joy we crave to share
	We remember them.

When we have decisions that are difficult to make
	We remember them.

When we have achievements that are based on theirs
	We remember them.

As long as we live, they too will live, for they are now a part of us as
	We remember them.
