For all those who have served to keep our country free, our familIES safe, and our nation strong --- HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY! And a tribute to our brave, courageous and selfless men and women.
I love this one Lin. Such glorious colors and such a fitting tribute. I especially like the sun spots on the poppies and the way you've worked the blue and green into the foliage. I hope lots of veterans see this and also families of those serving. Wouldn't it be great if those actually serving right now could see it too. When I see a service person I always try to put my hand over my heart and nod my thanks. What they are asked to do is beyond reason to me but then I've always been a Peacenik!
Hugs and love and thank you for this tribute to those who so richly deserve it. Lorraine
