I REMEMBER

 

I remember

Those with no future, But only a gallant past

I remember

Those who never lived, To enjoy the fruits of their sacrifice

I remember

Those who will be forever young, Those who will never be old

I remember

When the sun sets on their past, And rises brilliantly for our future

I remember

Father’s, sons and brothers, Husband’s, friends and lovers

I remember

That lost generation of men, Who went to war for our tomorrow

I remember

Poor man, gentleman and scholar, Who stood shoulder to shoulder

I remember

Those who fell before the foe, For a future they wouldn’t know

WHEN KITCHENER CALLED

When they hear the recruiter’s call And they take the King’s shilling They’re trained and uniformed And marched towards the killing
