#1No Heroes

There were no heroes here

Amongst the men who tramped through

Rutted, quaking moor,

Or crawled, cat-silent, 

Over skittering scree

To prove the way. 

No heroes fought the blazing fires

Which sucked the very blood from

Ship and man alike.

Or braved knife cold

Without a thought

To save a life.

No heroes they, but ones who loved

Sweet life and children's laugh,

And dreamt of home

When war allowed

They were but man.
