HARRY’S LAST POST

 

Soldiers bear the last of the lads

In casket draped in the union flag

And then a reverent silence falls

Before the last post’s mournful call

Trumpeting his journey into grace

To feel his comrade’s warm embrace

Goodbye Harry a soldier known

The final Tommy going home

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
