Highway Of Heroes (Yama)


People gather around
Wait for them to come home,
Our heroes of war
Their free spirits, now roam.

People do salute them
Travel the 4 0 1,
The Highway Of Heroes
Sits beneath the hot sun.

It's a dedication
To those that gave their lives,
The long stretch of highway
Is there, when they arrive.

I thought it was a great idea, for them to name Highway 401, in Ontario, Canada, Highway Of Heroes. It is a wonderful dedication, for our troops, that arrive home on their way to the Coroner's Office. May our Heroes, always be remembered. I just found this out on the news this weekend.
