A country to learn of & honour




The news has come to us today that we

might travel safely to a brighter land

that's close enough that one day we may see it (from a plane or boat - you understand)!


It's "neighbour" to Australia & was 

an ally in some wars in days gone by.

Some biscuits join our names, & so because we shared them during trouble - now we sigh


when mums & grannies make them crisp, or else 

they might be chewy (made with heaps of oats)

& we recall the times gone by we felt 

some friendship in our uniforms & coats


… (unfinished)
