A THOUGHT FOR ANZAC DAY

When you hear the bugles calling,
echoing the falling
footsteps of the Diggers
as they march along the road:

When you see the old flag flying;
see the veterans trying
to stem the tears that from their hearts
have sadly overflowed.

When you see their medals gleaming
as through the streets they’re streaming,
Proudly marching once again
in their ever thinning ranks;

Perhaps you might spare a thought
for those who suffered, died and fought
And I hope you’ll take the time to say,
“God Bless you all and thanks!”
