Poem- Our Comrades in Arms

        EPITAPH

FOREVER REMEMBERED

Our Comrades in Arms

So Young Departed 

                                Words on Marble 

                                Mark Your Passing

                                but The Pain of Your loss

                                Even Fifty Years Later Now

                                Is Engraved in our Hearts.

 COMRADES IN ARMS

There is not a single day since '41 that I do not re-call

My staunchest companions one and all

Who died alongside me in the hell of those days 

On the battle field, of Sidi Rezegh,

In the Western desert, outside Tobruk

So Young, so Vital, so full of fun, and then, so utterly destroyed 

Yet to me they are still alive and even thought I shed many silent tears 

Over these many years, their laughter still rings in my ears

Their boisterousness, Sincerity, and comradeship, 

                     Will never be forgotten.
