Rose Day
(In Aid of the Bridge of Remembrance).
Buy Roses; for the deal*, dear dead, Who yonder dreamless lie. Unheeding while the passing hours. Bring morn, or evening sky. Buy Roses; for the folded hands, That lie upon each breast; Those dear, brave hands that fought for us, New white and still - at rest. Buy Roses; for the soldier hearts, That for us pulseless lie; That their remembrance shall not fade, Their memory shall not die. Buy Roses; for dear Memory’s sake, Ah! let us not forget, Our dear, dear dead, nay, let us keep Remembrance with us yet. M.J.
