I remember a documentary about that tragic affair and the Highland Division of men sacrificed - -- so much hidden by war and its mongers that your sadness brought tears as this reader realized the absence of real recognition - shame on those responsible for this tragic neglect.

Its almost as if you have been in Combat dusk arising. Because either you have or you have an extreme insight that most don\'t have. Just Saying Don

Truer words are seldom spoken in this here World dusk arising. Leaders get to lead, while Soldiers get to do the dying. So right of you to make such an eloquent Poem out of the misery regular People go through in life for their part. Especially in War. Then to be discarded for some reason put out by the powers that be. Then to close it out with \"what\'s the point!\" Great Write. Don

\'stand tall and never forget
the unforgettable
sarcastically acknowledge
their hope for a world peace
which never comes\'
\'we, the survivors
your token that we won
only to watch society move along\'
\'though sat in an easy chair of age
custard creams and teacups
blazers and medals but
torn bodies lie screaming
in my mind\'
a Brilliant and worthy dedication, full of poignant detail, unquestionable tenderness and heartfelt pride!

Very, very true and poignant words d a.
The people that I have spoken to in the past about there times in the wars, just would not talk about it, it was so distressing for them to remember.
WE WILL REMENBER THEM.

So many of my family and friends\' veteran fathers and uncles and grandpas never wore their medals, didn\'t join vet organizations. You often learned of their heroism and sacrifice only when they died. My dad considered the glorification of veterans a hollow act of nostalgia and virtue signaling. But you could tell he never forgot his fellows himself, and quietly attended a few unit reunions only in old age.

The truth of these lines are shown in every old face who went there, did that and came back - leaving other dying cries for help alive in every survivor\'s mind to fester forever. -.... a most moving read for this special time of remembrance my friend.

Thanks DA. Beyond the great structure as a piece of poetry and the \'good write\' award which must come your way, of all the dystopian accounts and images around, this one feels right up there and well may be closest to the mark.
In the event, stay safe and take very good care of yourself

Thanks for the commentary on the sentiments embodied in \"Do not go gentle..\" Obviously Dylan T is projecting his own anger and grief at his father\'s imminent death onto that same father. Doesn\'t make those sentiments right though. I repeat: \'I hope to go gentle, futile to rage\'
Respect and regards, Dave

Followed instructions very carefully, then followed the trail to YouTube. What followed was the rabbit hole. Only follow that path with care. Follow me? Abandoned MPS for a small while. That will never do! Many thanks.
