The Laureate-December 7, 1941

Though young I still remember
how on that fateful day,
the look of shock in mother’s eyes
said our world had turned gray.

Then came the depravation...
rationing for our army’s needs.
The radio and the cinema
swelled our hearts with their brave deeds.

Resolve and toil helped win that war,
o’er seventy years our land stands free,
but those who bore that world war
know we must watch foes constantly.
