The Glenart Castle
Was
steaming home
On
a cold February night
In
1918
The
hospital ship
Headed
for safe haven
Her
lights green
Clearly
visible
Against
the dark horizon
Red
lamps lit her side rail
Her
masthead light burned bright
Fishermen
could see her
Red
Cross light
Then
a torpedo struck her
In
the number two hold
In
eight minutes
She
was gone
With 162 souls
