James Fraser Poet Rhyme

Of Canada, Canadians We Are

On the top of the berm
One Canadian soldier stood
His head bowed
Heavily understood

We sign up to do
What the duty ensues
To our flag we obey
Our enemies, we pursue

This tor of abroad
In a distant land
Four lives so free
Leaving families bland

As we awake tomorrow
Knowing of yesterdays gone
We do for the right
For on this world we belong

We are a nation of many
Some days we will scar
Of Canada
Canadians we are


My tribute to the many Canadian soldiers who have fought for not only their
Countries freedom, but to preserve world peace, i bow to the living and fallen.

Doris Culverhouse December 13, 2009 at 4:44 PM interesting tribute, you know I never even heard of a canadian soldier. I am sure there are some but just have not known about it. I never hear of any canadian news except the new singers out there.

Carolyn Devonshire December 13, 2009 at 3:09 PM A wonderful dedication to the great people of Canada, James. Your words can make them feel proud of all they have done and continue to do to promote world peace. Great work, dear Highlander! Love, Carolyn
