Memorial Day

Purple pulsates plumminess
Dripping down your chin
While lapping up soon-to-be
Summer succulence slithering
Blithely by in the breeze by the
Lake, languidly lazing in a
Bowl, pitted - dewy droplets
Embracing the small curvature
Of the cheery cherries skin
Before they meet their makers
On the incisors of many mouths
Welcoming the beginning of
Summer memorialized by
Memories of those who fought
We've since forgotten standing by
The Webber grills awaiting a
Tube steak or burger they no
Longer get to ingest because they
Were served a different meal of
Service to these United States.
