•Keep The Flowers Growing 



Oh, keep the flowers growing in our gardens, 

 In No Man's Land there is no living green! 



Near all that grime, 'mid all the hate that hardens, 

 In memory only, blossoms may be seen. 



In dreams of home he sees our garden flowers 

 And risks his life that peace may have its bloom; 



Can we do less than make our cottage bowers 

 Rare visions that will help dispel his gloom? 



Write him that roses climbing 'round the doorways 

 Perfume the night, and how the pansies grow; 



Let hollyhocks distract him from his war ways; 

 These are the little things he wants to know. 



When he returns victorious we'll meet him 

 With garlands and with petals at his feet; 



And if, mayhap, we never more shall greet him, 

 Our roses still shall keep his memory sweet.
