The Red Cross

Inc heQ IfOSS
Those white-c1ad girls with crimson
cross upon each breast,
Somehow do not remind one of the
war,
But seem more like the Dove of Peace
with mercy blessed,
But time has told the glory of their
corps.
When screaming shells out on the
field collect their due,
Those uniforms are stained with
hero gore,
And when at last the battles mighty
rage is through,
The Red Cross takes the place of
cannon's roar.
Those white-clad folk with calm, cool
smiles upon their face,
Contrast IN gloried splendor and do
more,
When on the battlefield they take no
heed of race,
But soothe the wounds inflicted
there by Thor,
Some mothers son along the line. all
bullet-torn,
With drying lips and swollen
tongue, will pour
A blessing there because the Red
cross corps was born,
SO do your bit-it's you he's fight
ing for. Selected.
