Ode to a Fallen Soldier

[alasharia_la]

I post this every year on Anzac Day.

FOR THE FALLEN

With proud thanksgiving, a mother for her children
England mourns for her dead across the sea,
Flesh of her flesh they were, spirit of her spirit,
Fallen in the cause of the free.

Solemn the drums thrill: Death august and royal

ANZAC Day is tomrrow, isn't it? I always thought it was the 25th, because that's also my Birthday.

I should have been able to figure that out. I now feel very stupid.
