Courage
Stick your toe in
and it burns
Hot wishes
layed like wreaths
spread out
before the Cenotaph
Heroic, Tragic sad comedic
Brave to have tried
At least
it is remembered
Tin Can
Pan Man
with Navvy looks
sits reclined
before the TV
remembering on Sundays
Church long gone
forgotten dust and dry
Wetted by a single
tear on his Cheek
Of it
To have survived
this long
before their time
was even begun
Shame this Courage
is today still been
served to our
Sons
