To Colonel William T. Poague On His Seventy-Seventh Birthday December 20, 1912 Little does he resemble Mars, Or son of Mars; no battle scars Make grim and terrible that face Where only kindly smiles find place; No lightning in those mild blue eyes, Bu t only light, you might surmise. No giant he — about as tall As France ' s Little Corporal Or England ' s hero of the seas — And of the same bree l as these. Look once again at him — ' tis worth Your whUe; few such are still on eartli. Of Stonewall ' s old Brigade was he, Commander of his battery; And Jove ' s own thunderbolt he hurled Where Stonewall ' s standard was unfurled — This man that rides so modestly Each morn — aged seven and seventy — His little sorrel down To his work through our town. At Bull Run, where war ' s tempest burtt T pon the land, and our metal first By the proud invading host was tried, He fire l the guns at .Jackson ' s side And helped to earn the name that stayed By the famous old brigade. All through the Valley fights that brought His Chief immortal fame, he fought; Cohl Harbor then, and Malvern Hill, Antietam, fatal Chancellorsville; In Gettysburg ' s most dreadful fray He cleared for Pickett ' s charge the way. His steady fire, with fatal aim, Belched thunder on the foe; Go read upon the bronze his name. And you ' 11 begin to know. liook once again at him — look well ; He went through war ' s four years of hell; And none was braver in the fight. And none to fame has better right. His horse shot ilown, his hat shot through, Battered and all but broke in two, On every field he stood his ground. And by his ready guns was found On Appomattox ' mournful day — This hero that did wear the gray. CoL. E. T. Kerlin. 26
