Generational Fears and Hopes
We remember our ancestors’ bleak and bloody days more than a century ago.
All the while, we pursue plans for our children’s future lives and a better tomorrow.
But on this chilling rainy April day, we hug and shed a tear,
and lay a special flower of remembrance at the eternal flame.
