She said to one: -How glows
My heart at the hot thought
Of battle-s glorious throes!-
He said: -For us who fought
Are icy memories
That must for ever freeze
The sunny hours they bought.-
She said to one: -How light
Must your freed heart be now,
After the heavy fight!â?
He said: -Well I don-t know.....
The war gave one a shake,
Somehow, knocked one awake.....
Now. life-s so deadly slow.-
