Epigraph: Why do I write poems?/ It's easier for me
To put my thoughts in rhythm, / Than in prose, you see;
And when I'm deeply stirred / By War, and love of Land,
The words just clamour there, / Till I take pen in hand:
I glimpse the silver sheen / Behind the darkest cloud.
If I help others see ? I'll be so very proud. - Gladys Lilywhite Staunton.
