Beautiful tribute Tended lawns Snow white crosses In their throngs Men sent out To right the wrongs Some were knighted Some were pawns There are lovely Spreading trees Bowing in the Scented breeze In the winter There to freeze There our nation's On its knees There are many Stones for heads Punctured by The flying lead There are widows For those wed The hearts are countless They, too, are dead.

If the hearts of wives, children, Mothers, fathers and friends Were to be counted the earth Wouldn't contain the dead. ---
