'October in War Time'
Timely verse from the Great War by James A. Ross. First published in the 22 October 1918 edition of the Medicine Hat News, the above comes from the poet's Canada First and Other Poems (Toronto: McClelland & Stewart, 1920).
A lovely poem, Brian. I first read about Canadians fighting in World War I in The Little Shadows by Marina Endicott.
ReplyDeleteWonderful and evocative. Thank you, Brian
