#1  The Ranker

In heavens ranks they humbly stand wounds and time now healed.
From battles far and distant shores, no taps for them now peal.
As pipers play on sunlit skies, straight they stand with brass aglow.
No tears do fall from the rankerÂ’s eyes, for kith and kin below.

Yet pray for us, and wait the sound, the sound of the buglerÂ’s call.
Ready again for quick march, to that final muster call.
Beseeching only we remember them, and to heavens humbly gaze.
Sending the father our earthly best, thanksgiving and daily praise.
