Keswick War Memorial
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Take my hand and come with me
to a special place across the sea
a sacred place in hallowed ground
its not a church you'll understand
just a part of home in another land
A place where gravestones stand arrayed
like a phantom army on parade
stand close to me and patience keep
and soon you'll see a brave man weep
he cries for his comrade beneath the stones
and I tell you friend he's not alone
Scenes like this are commonplace
in our special meeting place
so as you stroll down memory lane
think of us who must remain
and now its time to say adieu
but remember friend, we died for you
ANON
