Walk In Their Shoes

I literally had goosebumps reading this - nicely done

Winston Churchill

The Finest Hour

The fascist war machine is in the horizon,
Casting a shadow on the free,
The French have fallen,
So it’s up to us to make a stand.

We must put a stop to this madman,
We must show strength and resolve,
The commonwealth has to understand
That there is a great sacrifice to be made.

I must show the strength and inspire them,
So that they will fight with honor and integrity,
It’s our responsibly to fight for our freedom,
It’s our duty to defend our country,
The future of the free world depends on it,
We must brace ourselves…

“…the battle of Britain is about to begin…”
