Wow, great question. I wish I could have married Leonard Cohen (although my real husband is great too...). I love everything he wrote. Famous Blue Raincoat is definitely one of my favourites. In his collection of poems "Stranger Music" you will find some of my favourites on pgs, 3,27,115,176 "the killers" might be my #2 fave, 343, and so many more.\nWhat is your favourite and why?

Choose from those in 'The Penguin Book of First World War Poetry' - not only English but Russian, French, German, Italian, American. Please remember these people were also involved in the wars! Personal favourites? 'Dulce et decorum est', Wilfred Owen - grandfather was a gas attack victim: 'The Kite', Aleksander Blok - 12 lines that could change your perception of warfare (first heard at a comrade's funeral!). Also, 'Do not Stand at My Grave and Weep', Anonymous - I served!

I've always liked this poem...\n\nOne night I had a dream--\nI dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord \nand across the sky flashed scenes from my life. \nFor each scene I noticed two sets of footprints, \none belonged to me and the other to the Lord. \nWhen the last scene of my life flashed before me,\nI looked back at the footprints in the sand.\nI noticed that many times along the path of my life,\nthere was only one set of footprints.\nI also noticed that it happened at the very lowest\nand saddest times in my life. \nThis really bothered me and I questioned the Lord about it. \n"Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you,\nyou would walk with me all the way,\nbut I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life\nthere is only one set of footprints. \n"I don't understand why in times when I needed you most,\nyou should leave me." \nThe Lord replied, "My precious, precious child,\nI love you and I would never, never leave you\nduring your times of trial and suffering. \n"When you saw only one set of footprints,\nit was then that I carried you."\n\nMary Stevens
