	[minstrels] The Soldier -- Rupert Brooke
		This inevitably gives today's poem a slightly old-fashioned flavour - the poet is not, perhaps, glorifying war, but he certainly understands the motivations that would encourage young men to 'throw their lives away', and is not afraid of pronouncing them valid.
		Links: Yeats' poem is at poem #32 Margaret Lavington's biography is too long to include, so I'll merely point to it: http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Delphi/7086/brookebionote.htm And Bob Blair has a nice writeup on one of Brooke's other poems, The Chilterns, a lot of which is relevant to The Soldier as well: http://www.geocities.com/~bblair/990803.htm
		From: Jamie-lee I think that this poem convey deep emotional thoughts not of Brooke but of the family I believe that it was wrote for them incase that he died, it tells that no matter what he died for his country and that he is proud of it.

	MFF\|Soldier Poem
		Papers tell of their life stories from the time that they were young, But the passing of a soldier goes unnoticed and unsung.
		It's so easy to forget them, for it was so long ago That the husbands, sons, and fathers went to battle, but we know, It was not the politicians, with their compromise and ploys, Who won for us the freedom that our country now enjoys.
		He was just a common soldier and his ranks are growing thin, But his presence should remind us, we may need his like again.
