They shall not grow old,
as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
Laurence Binyon (1869-1943)
from his poem For the Fallen,
written in September 1914
Unfortunately "remembering them" doesn't seem to have made a blind bit of difference. more lethal weapons, more profits for the arms industry, more young blood being spilt. Just tragic. Hope all is well for you?
