Excerpt from Wings, and Other War Rhymes
Then Give Us Wings
If wings will help our men to see
Some Boche's belching battery,
Releasing from a screen of trees
Its screeching death upon the breeze -
Or help our giant guns to search
With truer aim each hidden perch
Of Teuton guns, and make them meek
Ere they again may chance to speak -
If wings, O God, will do these things,
Then give us wings.
If great destroying wings might stay
Munitions on their hurried way,
Or hold a reinforcement back
By dropping ruin on its track,
Or yet set free the pent-up hell
Of depots filled with shot and shell,
Or swiftly give eternal sleep
To ships that prowl the nether deep -
If wings, O God, will do these things,
Then give us wings and still more wings.
