The Unknown Warrior Comes Home
by Robert J (Bob) Moore © Nov.2018
From the battlefields on the Western front
four warriors, are going home
plain coffins covered by the flag
these warriors were unknown
One would be chosen, on this day
to represent them all
as a memory to all soldiers
who had heard the final call
Was not just for the missing
or for those in unmarked ground
but so all with loved ones over there
could believe they had been found
And so we sleep in peace now
beneath the setting sun
in Flanders Fields, and Ypres
and the forests of Verdun
Now we know that one of us
for all of us cannot
will make that journey home again
and we will never be forgot
Always Remembered
