vlamertinghe: passing the chateau by edmund blunden - the war poetry society lyrics

Loading...

‘and all her silken flanks with garlands drest’ *
but we are coming to the sacrifice
must those flowers who are not yet gone west?
may those flowers who live with death and lice?

this must be the floweriest place
that earth allows; the queenly face
of the proud mansion borrows grace for grace
spite of those brute guns lowing at the skies

bold great daisies’ golden lights
bubbling roses’ pinks and whites *
such a gay carpet! poppies by the million;
such damask! such vеrmilion!
but if you ask me, mate, the choicе of colour
is scarcely right; this red should have been duller
