To: coteblanche; Snow Bunny
We Will Remember"
by J.B. (Bunny) Dempsey
Chatham, New Brunswick

Medals Flashing In The Sun
Reminders 0f Past Deeds Done.
Pinned In Rows On A Chest
For Love 0f County He Did His Best.

Now White-Haired And Wrinkled Face
In Legion Garb He Stands In Place
Recalling Memories 0f His Youth
He And Comrades Fought For Truth.

The Bugle Sounds the "Last Post"
With Eyes Closed He Sees A Ghost;
A Comrade Killed In The Fray
Vividly Recalls As If Today.

Battled On Through The Days And Nights
So The Weak And Unborn Would Have Rights
Remember Your Brother Now In Prayer
But Don't Forget Why He Was There!

Proud 0f Country And Native Sons
A Peaceful People Slow To Guns.
The Eleventh Day of November
You Who Served "We Will Remember".
