December 7 Remembered by Terry Le Feber
As fleets at anchor
In many harbors safe
Silently sleeping
Final service done
Awaiting more to come
On sacred resting places
In straight rows moored
White masts stand
Saluting valiant warriors
Awaiting more to come
Asleep in honored silence
No more hearts do thrum
All rest together
Christian, Heathen, Jew
Awaiting more to come
Let not these lives be forgotten
Their sacrifices undone
But remember always
They died to keep silent
The roar of future guns
