BANDS and BANNERS

 

Furl not the banners

That carry the hopes of so many.

Banners that herald

A rich heritage,

And have led proud men

Along a hard and bitter road.

In front, the sounding brass of youth

That blows out it's heart

And stirs the souls

Of ordinary men.

Men that understand the silver notes

And what the banners mean.
