Nineteen Thirties Depression Poem by Joyce Hemsley

Nineteen Thirties Depression



Forty Words:

Men laboured the martyr way
in meadows of hay,
oblivious of the inclement weather!
To give little children
food and warmth
and moccasins of leather,
'survival' ~ their sole endeavour.
The Wall Street blue...
they saw it through,
forever we'll remember.
