Face of the Unknown Soldier By aldo kraas, www.PoetryPoem.com/poet11586 Unlock all Features - Upgrade to Poetry Prime
100 years ago was World War 1
For our country's freedom much blood was shed
Families lost their fathers, husbands, sons
Known and unknown soldiers injured or dead
100 years later soldiers guard still
The sacred tomb of the unknown Soldier
Unthinkable such evil would but kill
An unarmed soldier, his life now over
Corporal Cirillo was sacrificed
Family lost a husband, son, father
Sorrowing are his mother, son, and wife
Country honours him a fallen brother
A brave face for umknown soldiers who died
Who finally can be identified
