Fromelles Whispers

In the fields of Fromelles, where shadows lie,

Underneath darkened, turbulent sky.

On July 19th and 20th, brave men took a stand,

Fighting with courage in a foreign land.

Ten to Fifteen thousand soldiers, hearts bound by duty,

Facing the enemy, driven by loyalty.

Against thirty thousand, a daunting fight,

Hope as their shield, and darkness as night.

Always remember, never forget,

The sacrifice, the courage, the spirit they set.

In every memory, their voices shout,

Fromelles’ brave souls, we honor, no doubt.

Seven thousand and eighty, the toll they've paid,

Lost too soon, in the price they’ve paid.

Their stories of valor, etched in stone and time,

Remind us all, of their sacrifice.

In trenches deep and muddy fields,

Their fate was sealed, their destiny revealed.

But in our hearts, their flame burns bright,

Guiding us through the darkest night.

Always remember, never forget,

The sacrifice, the courage, the spirit they set.

Fromelles whispers in the silent breeze,

A plea for peace and love.

So let us stand in solemn grace,

Honoring heroes, in this sacred place.

Their memory lives, forever in our sight,

Fromelles’ heroes shining bright.
