Maple Leaf Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 A poet friend of mine visited the Somme last month, and I asked him to go to Contalmaison. When he got back, he sent me this: Sair Thochts o? The Somme Yon Thiepval?s tower; an? Caribou; the Diggers? granite mark; the Windmill, an? the wee bronze tanks; cauld High Wood?s shattered birks; there wander fading memories o?er ninety lang years on, for Scotland must na? e?er forget the laddies wha? are gone. The kirk at Contalmaison wi? the cornfield crowdin? by; a widden bench frae Wille Bauld?s an? oor Saltire breezin? high; The Cutting in this wee bit toun whaur the 16th Royal Scots died; there Reason cries the laddies? names - but Echo answers, ?Why?? Noo, silent, bluidy sandstone stands as strang as were oor men. It?s a? that Reason has tae show - or ever will, forbye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
