TO THE CHILDREN OF FRANCE
I wish you, children, playing roundOn this too-rudely trampled ground,Only the good things I would sendTo all the children I befriend.But one wish circles all: To knowLittle of what your elders do,And somehow into the sunlight growOut of the mists they stumble through.R. R. Kirk, Pvt., G2, S.O.S.

But one wish circles all: To know
Little of what your elders do,
And somehow into the sunlight grow
Out of the mists they stumble through.
