*If We Return, will England be

Just England still to you and me ?

The place where we must earn our bread ?

We, who have walked among the dead....*

F W Harvey

The photo is of an unknown soldier who adorns my wall.

This might be the third year running I've posted this particular quote. I like it, it speaks not only of the dead but of those who returned.

Edit: Yep, I clicked on the tag word remembrance and it's definitely my third year with this quote! At least I have a new pic this year, in 08 and 07 I used the same picture..

Thank you cariadus. It's a small part of a larger piece. He also wrote one of my mother's favourites which starts:

*From the troubles of the world I turn to ducks..* Which you might be familiar with.

Harvey was captured behind enemy lines and spent the last part of WW1 in a POW camp.

Clever pic with the poppy, hats off to your BS!
