Lest Ye Forget, Poetry

Lest Ye Forget

Never forget
The lives lost
The faces blurred
By the tears of time.

Never forget
The life you have
Who died to give it
Whose life was lost
To save yours

Never forget
That one day
It could be you
Dying for a face
You’ll never see

Never forget
That every cross
In the endless fields
Belongs to a face
And a life

Never forget
That beneath the soil
Lays the spirit and bones
Of the ‘Unnamed Soldier’.
