Wren Rushing Poet Rhyme

Lest We Forget

 Somewhere there is a field,
in that field there is a stone.
The men that lie beneath it,
are men that are unknown.
This solemn stone holds words 
and those words it holds are few.
But those few words it holds,
are words that hold so true.

THESE BRAVE MEN STOOD UNITED
AND UNITED THEY GAVE ALL.
IN HOPES THEIR KINSMEN WOULD REMEMBER,
IF DIVIDED THEY WILL FALL.

Quoth Theraven February 21, 2021 at 10:41 AM Wren Rushing, Such a profound message of forewarning in your poem. There is so little contrition in a YOLO wavering world. The golden rule will always prevail because it is just. -Richard Wren Rushing February 26, 2021 at 12:19 PM You are so right Richard, following the golden rule covers a multitude of sins. Have a blessed day my friend.

P.S. Awtry February 20, 2021 at 6:52 PM How often we do forget :( You drew me in with the opening line. Well done. Wren Rushing February 26, 2021 at 12:17 PM Thank for your kind words P.S.! Have a blessed day.

John Lawless February 15, 2021 at 3:07 PM a sentiment we should all be reminded of every so often. Well done. Wren Rushing February 15, 2021 at 6:08 PM Thank you John! And yes you are right we must remember.
