Under the Union Jack

Under the Union Jack, 

Softly they sleep; 

Wattles sigh over them, 

Violets weep. 

Under the Union Jack, 

Heroes they rise, 

Bright with the golden beam,

From Southern skies. 

Honour the fallen brave, 

Flag, flower, and tree.

What holds their fame secure? 

Eternity. 

By Trooper Frederick Harold Weston, Service Number 357, 10th Light Horse Regiment, Killed in Action, 7^th August 1915, Gallipoli, Turkey; Born in Laura, South Australia.
