THE CROSS (On the grave of an unknown British soldier, Givenchy, 1915 )
THE cross is twined with gossamer, -- The cross some hand has shaped with care, And by his grave the grasses stir But he is silent sleeping there.
The guns speak loud: he hears them not; The night goes by: he does not know; A lone white cross stands on the spot, And tells of one who sleeps below.
The brooding night is hushed and still, The crooning breeze draws quiet breath, A star-shell flares upon the hill And lights the lowly house of death.
Unknown, a soldier slumbers there, While mournful mists come dropping low, But oh! a weary maiden's prayer, And oh! a mother's tears of woe.
