Monogrammed Prayers on Memorial Day

by Alice Jane-Marie Massa

I am a visitor at the graves—

Ave Marias on Memorial Day.

Taps and tulips are there;

peonies and patriotism are there.

Where do I place

the monogrammed prayers?

    Alice, I always think of you this holiday because of your Indiana roots and your enthusiasm for the auto race. So this post is a good reminder of the holiday’s origin.

    • Hello, Sue–I do appreciate your thoughtful comment.  Yes, I took in as
      much as possible of all of the 500 activities, but still try to keep in
      mind the reason for the holiday.

      Looking forward to seeing you soon–Alice and Willow
