A Soldier's Ballad by Rudyard Kipling Mood
Saturday, October 10, 2009 | An Inspiring story

I have eaten your bread and salt

I have drunk your water and wine

The deaths ye died I have watched beside

And the lives that ya led were mine

 

Was there aught that I did not share

In vigil or toil ease...

One joy or woe that I did not know

Dear hearts across the seas?

 

I have written tale of our life

For a sheltered people's mirth

In jesting guise... but ye are wise

And ye know what the jest is worth.

    It's interesting. I like it. I'm a big poetry lover. Read it, sing it, write it. So that's where my bread and wine went LOL! Let me know when you get hungry again and I'll fix you something better to eat.
