Hearing their whispers – v2


Even under bright sky
anthems of the brass bands
applause of this community
as the veterans marched by

Hearing their whispers
those who died for our freedoms
their prayers that we would be faithful
to the beliefs we share inside

Knowing they are watching
sensing them here with those assembled
watching down over us
as they have always done
