Talking To God

Title:     Talking To God
Author: Herbert Edward Palmer [More Titles by Palmer]

A fighting man lay down for ease
In the shade of two tall forest trees
Deep dinted with bullet and shell.

And one tree said to the other,
"Is not this worn soldier our brother!
And has he not vowed to defend
This strip of green glade till the End!
Let us thank the kind Father in Heaven
For this kinship of man He has given."

The trees talked to God all the night,
And they thrilled with a soaring delight.

[The end]
Herbert Edward Palmer's poem: Talking To God
