Just Before the Battle Mother (1 Viewer)

[jazzeum]

An officer of the Izumsky Hussars readies himself for battle.



****

Just before the battle, mother,
I am thinking most of you,
While upon the field we're watching
With the enemy in view.
Comrades brave are 'round me lying,
Filled with thoughts of home and God
For well they know that on the morrow,
Some will sleep beneath the sod.

Farewell, mother, you may never
Press me to your heart again,
But, oh, you'll not forget me, mother,
If I'm numbered with the slain.

Wonderful, Brad ... once again, your mini-dio shows the great effect that can be achieved with just ONE figure and a good story!
