Marble Stars of David, Marble Crosses



Marble Stars of David and Marble Crosses

      75th Anniversary-D-Day
            June 6, 1944

Gratitude to all soldiers who
died on D-Day.
Unless all nations had decided
to end Hitler's rule!
And nations were willing to call
evil for what it was,
The Fuhrer and his madmen
might still be in power now.

We compare our leaders to that
madman?
How utterly juvenile, shameful
and maddeningly futile.
You can see which group who is
dedicated to stopping total free 
speech, or what we can see, 
hear or read.
Hitler did the same.
Remember?

They beat people who were not
of the Third Reich thinking.
Killed not only Jews,but also 
gypsies,Christians even Greek 
Jews, too. And countless more.

Suppression is going on here,
and it sets my heart to sinking.
When will we stop harming others
for their beliefs or thinking?

D-Day gets almost zero attention
in America.
I was moved by the marble Stars 
of David and marble crosses at 
Normandy!
Where thousands died to save you
and me.
Yes, from all nations!

9,000 plus buried in hallowed 
ground.
A number, far from small.
But, in those days, people did
understand:
If you do not have freedom to
be politically and religiously
free,
You don't have freedom at all.

No poem I ever write equals the 
valor of a soldier.
Wear a uniform is San Francisco
hired protestors spit on you!
That shows me how precarious 
our freedom is.
It comes with a price.
The price is your willingness to
stand for this country and not
allow it to be treated as a joke.

++In memory the greatest,who 
not only fought but came back 
and built this American nation.++ 


Mein Kampf is still very popular in a
certain part of the world. 
Check where online! Gross!

"But, in those days, people did understand: If you do not have freedom to be politically and religiously free, You don't have freedom at all." I certainly understand this! I feel it is here today, right now. We have to wake up!

Caren....of all the thousands of poets here, only you responded. Says volumes about you. Mainly, you love other poets besides yourself. Acknowledging another shows your greatness. You also are willing to say you stand for freedom. With Deepest Appreciation, Panagiota.

Nation is in a state of sleep, Caren. When we areVenezuela the Second, we may wake up. Meanwhile, we can hide on the Internet. I have no answers. But know that people are good and want their rights and freedoms. It's just a weird time! You are the only one responding to D-Day. You Deserve a Crown! PR

We do not need to go to a war. Tech companies are worst. There is only PC speech allowed now and much monster making. Insane Panagiota
