an Armistice Day Message

They lie still, but not silent, those dead of two World Wars. Their deeds will speak for them forever.

The battle that has ended for them, has not ended for us. The Beast of War that killed them, we must kill.

They did not barter away their youth in exchange for our flowers or phrases, or sculptured marble. They want us to build, if we can, as their enduring monument- a world without war.
