KILLED IN ACTION
Yes, I am proud; I shall not weep, my son - Boy of the high, brave spirit, who lies slain, Blent with the earth-grown hallowed for the stain Of thy young life-blood. Boy, who on my breast Has lain, so small, so dear, in infant rest; Whose tiny, clinging hands and nestling head Seemed God and life to me - dear son, now dead, Son of the strong young frame, the fearless heart, Vibrant with life and thought, the coming man, Shadowed in graver mood, the finished plan. My mother love foresaw and knew content. And when, all youthful fire and courage blent, You said good-bye, I smiled (Oh, God! that day Fear clutched my heart); I would not have you stay. Boy! you have died as we would have you die. Yes, I am proud, my son; I shall not weep, But, ah! within the hours of broken sleep I see your dear, loved form, your eyes, your hair, And clench my arms to clasp and hold you there; Then wake and know the glory you have won. Yes, I am proud, indeed, but - Son, oh Son! -KATHLEEN ERSOM (New Zealand). 6744
