"I shall weep
 For duty calls
 In another man's hands
 My child's fate falls

 The guns fire
 The cannons boom
 In the fields
 Lay young men's doom

 They lay in the trenches
 Waiting to die
 Above their heads
 The larks do fly

 There my son lies
 In bitter defeat
 He shall never return
 I shall weep"

The pain and suffering that soldiers and their families had to go through must never be forgotten. The price they paid for our freedom, for our way of life, should not be taken likely. But alas, these great heroes remain forgotten, only remembered on one day a year. We should take pride in our nation and those who have fought for it. I resolve to remember, to give thanks everyday for those who gave their lives so that we may live better today.
