BYl THEE COMMUNITY MINDED BUSINESSES. f ' 1For The Fallen With proud thanksgiving, a mother for her children, Engfland-mourns for her dead across the sea. Flesh of her flesh they were, spirit of spirit, Fallen in the cause of the free. Solemn the drums thrill: Death august and royal Sings sorrow up into immortal spheres. There is music in the midst of desolation And a glory that shines upon our tears. They went with songs to the battie, they were young, Straight of lirnb, true of eye, steady and aglow, They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted; They fell with their faces to the foe. They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the Sun and in the morning We will remember them. But where our desires are and our hopes profound, Feit as a well-springthat is hidden frorn sight, To the innermost heart of their own land they are known As the stars are known to the Night: As the stars that shall be bright when we are dust, Moving in marches upon the heavenly plain, As the stars that are starry in the time of our darlkness, To the end, to the end, they remain. Laurence Binyon Battie of the Marne 1916. In memoy of ail RC.N., R.C.N.R., IR&.N.V.R. ami Merhantt Navy> Personnel lost at sea The Veteran's EyeS b: Erin Skalski Some people say, In a daze of self pity, Eyes are the windows to the soul, He pulls his own body out of the trench. When 1 look into the veterans eyes, On Remembrance Day. There are images of dying soldiers, We are told to remember, And lifes vital juices spilling on the ground. But the veteran can flot forget. His eyes are cold and icy blue. The images permanently etcbed in his mind,- Hard as flint with sparks of hate, I-is soul forever tormented. The pupil dark but not quite vacanlt, The veterans mind recoîlects, Images hypnotic 1 cant heîp but stare. The A-bomb and D-day, When 1 look into his eyes, H-e was not there in body, I sce young men in mortal combat, But he was with the soîdiers in spirit. T1hey are the same age as my brother, The veteran looks into my eyes. But war makes them look older. I-e secs innocents, and tcnderness, my soul is at The veterans eycs flîl wil tears, peace, I see him dragging bis mutilated friend, Eyes are the windows to the soul, Out of no man's land and into the trench, But I dont think we truîy understand what we A few hours later is friend dies, sec.
