Today is Anzac Day,
A day when we stop to remember
The brave souls who gave their all
For This Lucky Country,
Australia.
We are a proud young country,
Which many of various culture
Are now pleased to call their own,
Forever free and welcoming,
Australia.
For all we have and are to be
As time passes since that day,
We bow our heads and lift our hearts
To diggers who made her so,
Australia.

Thank you Glenys for sharing your beautiful poetry. Lest We Forget.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kaycee. I have linked to your post and joined your blog! Blessings!
DeleteThat is great! Australia is one place I'd love to visit. Have you ever read "The Shadow of the Lynx"? by Phyllis A. Whitney? It is so good. (She is not Australian, though). Also, a non fiction book The Road to Courain. So good!
ReplyDeleteNo, Ellie Rae I haven't read either of them... you should try to make it to Oz. It is a beautiful country! Blessings!
DeleteBeautiful poem.
ReplyDeleteFrom New Zealand, Yes! May we never forget, and always be grateful.
