Beaches

Wish them well As off they go In rocking boat's On this day to be named D Bound for the pages of History In landing crafts With final draft of pain stained letter's To Family and friends Penned in pockets called to defend As thousand bullets and weary trenches Lest the righteous not derail The death smelt stale in solem waves Of wounded men 10 by 10 Just keep going We can not return Unless to help the fallen infirmed Or the badly burned that fate had turned To corpse black ashes And tailored tatters To whom only Loved One's There memory shall matter
