Rhymed Couplets

Tribute

 

Proudly standing in the pouring rain
I thought about you time and again

Oh, how you would love to be here
To see your children, and I shed a tear

For we have moved on and left you behind
We will never forget the men of your kind

The poppy wreathes we proudly did lay
On a piece of concrete on that special day

Was a tribute to you and all who perished
Your memory will be forever cherished

Wet hair, wet coat, as I stood there thinking
Of you dear man, in the mud almost sinking

The sacrifice you made for me
I will make for you in Eternity
