Lees Lament
"Sleep now my little one
this too shall pass"
Those words flow through my memory
like sand through an hour glass
Campfires burning low at night
I sense childish fear
Shadows dance on Autumns mist
Old ghosts reappear
Morning soon and I shall hear
the distant call to war
Again I pause to wonder,
"What are we fighting for"?
Give me strength and courage Lord,
tell me what to say
For I alone must give the word
and send them to the fray
In homes on bended knee they pray
for mercy from above
In homes where little boys once played
and filled their lives with love
"What is this reason
we go running off to war"?
The truth is but a whisper...
"To die, and nothing more"
Wisdom is not in words; wisdom is the meaning in words
