In
the Fields of Florence
Row
on row
Marks
the places of American
Heroes,
from WWII!
Scarcely
heard, amid the youth of today
Yet
they cry out: “We are the Dead,
Shortly
lived…
And
here now we lie,
In
the Fields of Florence!...
Take
up the torch of freedom
Break
no faith,” they exclaim.
“For
we have died that you may live;
In
the Fields of Florence!...”
