Question #1:
The Messages
"i cannot quite remember... There were five
Dropt dead beside me in the trench - and three
whispered their last messages to me..."
Back from the trenches, more dead than alive,
Stone-deaf and dazed, and with broken knee,
He hobbed slowly, muttering vacantly:
"I cannot quite remember... There were five
Dropt dead beside me in the trench - and three
whispered their last messages to me..."
"Their friends are waiting, wondering how they thrive -
Waiting a word in silence patiently...
But what they said, or who their friends may be
"I cannot quite remember... There were five
Dropt dead beside me in the trench - and three
whispered their last messages to me..."
