Epitaph Poem by Isabel Ecclestone Mackay
Epitaph
Rating: ★2.7
(For the unknown soldier buried in Westminster Abbey.)
YOU who died fighting
For me and my little children;
You who are a million
Yet are but one,
I lay upon your grave
A rose and a tear--
The tear is the world's sorrow,
The rose is your joy.
