At the going down of the sun,
And in the morning,
We will remember them.

An ANZAC day poem, by Monica:
ReplyDeleteQuestions
Tears traipse down
my face of mud
I bite my lip, it
tastes of defeat
He said, don’t stop,
Carry on, get there,
Stop them
But why?
Why the war?
Nobody asked for this,
Nobody needed this,
Did they?
Guns echo,
each shot
answers my question
Monica, thank you for writing such a beautiful poem. You have really captured the feeling that many of the soldiers experienced. You also show that you have made a real connection with what you have learned about the battle at ANZAC Cove. Well done.
