Tm A Soldier Hates to See His Mother Cry I came back last week for the last time, To see my home town again-for the last time. I expected to see my sister blonde and laughing and blue-eyed. I expected to see my father dignihed or gay, In one of the moods he had from time to time. I expected to find my mother quiet and smiling, And arguing with dad about working for the duration. But my mother was crying. I didn't mind dying so much after it was over, Because I could sit on almost anything and it didn't hurt. And walking around, I didn't get my feet as sore as I did Before I died. Dying didn't seem like a grand and horrible thing, just Restful. But when I saw my mother crying . . . I guess I nearly cried myself. That's why I say, if you're going to stop wars, do it now While the chance is there and you're young enough To see it that way, because when you're older, You may die too in a war like this one and take it from me, A soldier hates to see his mother cry. By JULE MEYNI, Class of 1945 C ourtefy Calumet H emld
