I tried to write about Armistice
But found I haven’t the vocabulary
To express the emotion felt by the nation
Much better scribes than me
Have described in incredible detail
How ordinary men fell
Defending the freedom of a nation
A nation with which I am incredibly proud
To be a descendant of those brave men
Who must never be forgotten
Nor lost their lives in vain
For peace and freedom
Must be
Everyone’s ultimate aim.
