Thank you for sharing. I listened to a wonderful poem linked below. The author wrote it for his son when he turned 12. On a sad and tangential note, years after this poem was published, he “pulled strings” to get his son to serve in WW1. His son died and he later wrote: “If any question why we died / Tell them that our fathers lied.”
