Of the rest He sends to the hearts He tried,
Of the calm that follows the stormiest life --
God's eventide.

We shall not sleep, though poppies grow: In Flanders fields.
John McCrae

That youth and love should stand at his behest;
To-night, I envy him, that he should lie
At utter rest.
John Mccrae
Earth's love was false; her voice, a siren's song;
(Sweet mother-earth was but a lying name)
The path she showed was but the path of wrong
And shame.
John Mccrae
