Passion &amp; Courage <br /> <br /> You tend to express yourself<br /> Passionately and courageously<br /> At least that's what the little note<br /> Inside the fortune cookie said to me<br /> <br /> Two little words that together tell<br /> So much about the character of <br /> Our veterans resting neath the sod<br /> Now resting there alone with God<br /> <br /> For they have given life and limb<br /> The supreme sacrifice for country and kin<br /> And we owe a huge debt of praise<br /> To them and all those so heroically engaged<br /> <br /> And when the strains of that old hymn<br /> Eternal Father Strong to Save<br /> Echo-out across the waves<br /> Our veterans stir within their graves <br /> <br /> And if they could I know they would<br /> Join us in a rousing chorus<br /> For I know they dearly would<br /> Enjoin in song especially for us<br /> <br /> John Cornick<br /> Halifax, Nova Scotia<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />   Submitted By: John Cornick
