...and the soldiers go marching

Memorial Day at Fort Riley

...and soldiers are marching,
Marching,
Faces to the grandstand,
On a windy day.

Marching, marching as 
A Shining Brass Band
Officiates.

The humble and brave
Pass by.
The pompous linger at edges,
Fading away.

 But the Proud
who served selflessly, 
Salute
The parade of young military

Marching...

Marching into
The soup that is past, present,and future 
History.

These italicized word are from Delores at Under the Porch Light from the Wednesday Words of April 18, 2013

Delores posts six words on Wednesdays, challenging bloggers to juggle them around.  This was what I juggled then and now.  Thanks, Delores!
