POEM OF THE MONTH : NOVEMBER 2009
 
" SILENT COURAGE "
 
As November 11th approaches
     We are reminded dear
     At that hour
     We cultivate a stillness
      We Embrace and shed a tear

       To journey back to the times
     And look at the faces now as to back then
      Of these survivors of wars
      All that they endured and encountered
       Yet fought with all their heart and spirit
       It was indeed
        Time of Reckoning

       Each year goes by
       The poppies weep
       As they guard their Sacred soldiers
       With a promise of protection to keep

        Row upon row
       With grey and white
       When the sun shines in daylight
       Or with the moon into the night
        Their souls know

       In sombre sounds we listen
       For their galliant cry
       To remember  them truely
       Honour their bravery
        Why they had to die

          Cast upon us
         Their spirits
          Let our hearts welcome them home
           Thou shall we not forget
            But remember always
           Their silent courage...
