They shall not grow old
As we that are left grow old
Age will not weary them
Or the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun
And in the morning.
We will remember them.
LEST WE FORGET (PLEASE NO THUMBS UP FOR THIS I AM A THANKFUL EX DIGGER)

The Soldier. Rupert Brooke (1887-1915)
If I should die, Think only this of me:
That there's some corner of a foreign field
That is for ever England. There shall be
In that rich earth a richer dust concealed;
A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware,
Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam.
A body of England's, breathing English air,
Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home.
