TO HOLD UP THE RED,
WHITE AND BLUE
Darling, when I am far away
From you somewhere in France
1 ask you to always think of me
And pray that I may have a chance.
To leave you, deaar, was hard
The hardest thing of all,
But I was no slacker,
When I heard my country's call.
To be at home with you, little Girl
Is happiness, that is true
But I can’t see the Germans
Down the old Bed, White and Blue.
I'd like to be with you often
These beautiful happy days.
But now it makes me blue to think
That you are so far away.
Some day in the future
This great conflict will end,
And the soldier boy who loves you
Will come to you again.
It Is the duty of every Girl
Who is left behind
To always remember the boy she lives
Who is on the tiring line.
He did not want to leave you
For he is going to risk his life,
He is true American
And upholds the Stars and Stripes.
I told you when I kissed you
Those lips of yours so sweet.
That I was going to leave you
And again we may never meet.
Don't give upfl my darling,
If you. love me you will wait
If we don’t meet again on earth
We will at the Golden Gate.
Some girls are not so patient
And will not wait so long
They will go and love a slacker,
When their soldier boy has gone.
When ho goes to light his battle
For his country and for you,
His heart is always resting
On the one he thinks is true.
Whfen he returns in the years to come
And finds that you were false,
11 in whole life will be ruined
And his happiness will be lost.
Do not bear this strain, little girl
Make your love be true, ,
Greet the boy in khaki
When he comes marching back to you
Throw your arms around him
Let him kiss your sweet little lips,
And he will jcyfully tell you
All about his wonderful trips.
I will close this letter hoping
You will be mine some day
And I bid you good-night for this hour
And go along my way.
—F. C. POSEY.
