Its Not the Land We Knew
It’s Not the Land we Knew
by Robert (Bob) Moore © 2022
It’s not the land we knew then digger
the one we sacrificed for
we did not shirk, and analyse,
before we went off to war
There was a need, we saw it clear
what we should do for our country
and so we went, without a thought
except to do our duty.
We did not know so many of us
were destined to not return
and even if we had have known
our duty, we would not spurn
We remember those who sacrificed
gave all they had to give
and we will keep their memory
as long as brave souls live.
