no NOT imagine folks
that real war is like
PLAYING with war.
Great wars last from five
to tenor even thirty years.
Everything Is fine at first
when the boys march bravely
away.
The bands are playing. The
flags are flying.
We are so proud of them
that day.
We will be so glad when
at last they come back vic
torious---if only they do come
back.
But the war drags YEARLY
on.
1t ceases to be a play war
and becomes a real war.
The burden becomes
heavier and heavier, the
strain greater and greater,
the worry harder and harder
to bear.
We dread to look at the
casualty lists - or else we
look and find that our worst
fears are realized.
