DECORATION DAY
•i~T . * ___ |
BY WILL CARLETON
Cover them over with beautiful flowers;
Deck them with garlands, these brothers ot ours,
Lying so silent by night and by day,
Sleeping the years of their manhood away,
Years they had marked for the joys of the brave.
Years they must waste in the sloth of the grave.
All the bi ight laurels they fought to make bldom
Fell to the earth when they went to the tomb.
Give them the meed they have won in the past;
Give them the honors their merits forecast;
Give them the chaplets they won in the strife,
Give them the laurels they lost with their life.
Cover them over, yes, cover them over,
Parent and husband and brother and lover;
Crown in your heart these dead heroes of ours,
And cover them over with beautiful flowers.
Cover the thousands that sleep far away,
Sleep where their friends cannot find them today;
They who in mountain and hillside and dell
Rest where they wearied, and lie where they fell.
Softly the grass-blade creeps round their repose,
Sweetly above them the wild floweret blows;
Zephyrs of freedom fly gently overhead,
Whispering names for the patriot dead.
So in our minds we will name them once more,
So in our hearts we will cover them o’er;
R.<ses and idles and violets blue
Bloom in our souls for the brave and the true.
Cover them over — yes, cover them over —
Parent and husband and brother and lover;
Think of those far away heroes of ours. ,
Cover them over with beautiful flowers.
