The Silent Army
The vast army is nearly silent now.
The old ones are slipping away
to join the young ones patrolling
the endless shadowlands of memories.
The familiar strains of Auld Lang Syne
play softly in the mind
while stories of the vast army
are writ with growing urgency
for later generations to learn
of the disease of war and its cure
achieved by the pain and sacrifice
of the youth of the vast army.
Raw memories of Sandakan sacrifice
so long buried in secrecy
weep for a History for the Ages
to tell generations to come
of the evil that was done here;
of the strength that was found here;
of the succor that was given here;
of the hope that was born here.
Sandakan’s History for the Ages
is in our “Windows from the Heart”
our gift of love to those on endless patrol
in the shadowlands of our memories.
