THE BOY IN KHAKI,
fBy X. C. By

saw a mother,
And her brown clad boy.
And heard her Sob
And "Goodbys son"
And saw him
Kiss her tears away.
And go.
And hours passed.
And in the darkness
OF my room
| lay.
And all the pictures
That the day had drawn
Came back.
And she was there
And he was there.
And then a picture
From cross the seas
Was painted
On my shadow wall,
And he was there
And all about him,
There were shadow men
But nowhere
Could l find the face
Nor find the form
OF her.
And then
Another picture came.
A great Red Cross,
And wounded men
Looked up at it,
And raised their arms
And smiled.
And he was there.
And as | gazed
Upon the cross
saw her face.
And so it was
That in the darkness
OF my room
1t came to me
That Red Cross work
Across the seas
Was mothers work
In other hands
And done for her.
And then sleep came
And came a dream,
A cheering throng,
And boys come home.
And he was there
And she was there.
And once again
| heard her sob
And saw him
Kiss her tears away.
And in their wake
On that glad day
A Red Cross waved,
AS it had waved
And followed Him
Down in the valley
And came back again.
! thank you.
