Award winner, Ian! I love the composition, and the drama that the background evokes! Let us all remember....

Thanks for sharing.

If I should die, think only this of me:
That there's some corner of a foreign field
That is forever England. There shall be
In that rich earth a richer dust concealed;
A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware,
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.
