Flowers For Brave Soldiers

By Helen Leah Reed

Flowers for brave soldiers, Flowers for those who gave us A Country undivided. Flowers for the dead! With flags we are marking Their last earth-dwelling. Our hearts are bending In gratitude, While we are praying That this our Nation Pass safe through peril, Through deadly war. Flowers for brave soldiers - Flowers for those who loved us, Flowers to their memory, This fair spring day!
