Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam;
A body of England's, breathing English air,
Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home.
And think, this heart, all evil shed away,
A pulse in the eternal mind, no less
Gives somewhere back the thoughts by England given;
Her sights and sounds; dreams happy as her day;
And laughter, learnt of friends; and gentleness,
In hearts at peace, under an English heaven.

The Soldier
Rupert Brooke

I learnt this poem as a child and found it haunting then... Nice post and I for one shall not forget the debt by so many and paid by men younger than is right, through desicions made by men old enough to know better.
Nice build Mark .. thanks!
