Thanks, Ruth! Beautiful and memorable!
Is the flower “sage?” My sage is in bloom now,too – and some of the leaves look like sage….. maybe not quite sage-green, tho!
I am very thankful each Memorial Day that I have not lost anyone in my family to war, any war. They’ve all come back safe. There’s a place in my heart, though, for those who never made it back to their loved ones and families. Life isn’t fair and war is a constant reminder of that. This photo is absolutely beautiful – thanks Ruth!
“Let them not be forgotten for they have shown the world that freedom is not free” They gave of themselves and asked nothing in return, these magnificent warriors.
Moving photo. Happy Memorial Day to you as well.
