A Poem A Day by Romilly Wilde

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old,

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We will remember them.

We will remember them

Lest we forget.

The ode is the fourth stanza of Binyon’s poem For the

Fallen first published in 1914. It commemorates

wartime service and sacrifice.
