Remembrancer ... Grave

Today’s word is “remembrancer” ... reminder; memento; souvenir. (Dictionary.com)

Grave
Long ago a ribbon,
Or simple toy of wood,
Would be a remembrancer,
For the lucky or the good.

No flashy electronics,
Or fancy fashions fine,
We’re required as tokens,
To remember special times.

On this day memorial,
The only thing we really need,
Is the image of true sacrifice,
As a message we should heed.
