Poem for Valentine’s Day – with a film connection

 

Carve Her Name with Pride

 

Poem for Valentine’s day

(Sadly not mine)

 

The Life That I Have

The Life that I have

Is all that I have,

And the life that I have, is yours.

 

The love that I have,

Of the life that I have,

Is yours, and yours, and yours.

 

A sleep I shall have,

A rest I shall have,

Yet death will be but a pause.

 

For the peace of my years,

In the long green grass,

Will be yours, and yours, and yours.

 

Leo Marks

Used in the Film – Carve Her Name With Pride (1958)
