Taken from a POW journal I have in my posession,
My England
I shall come back to my own England,
Of hedgerow and of field,
Where the wounds in my mind will be slowly healed,
And the graves in my heart will be overgrown,
And i'll sit in the sun.
Cpl Arthur Wainwright, Lancaster rear gunner, Stalag Luft 6, 12/10/1944, a POW after being shot down over enemy territory. My Grandfather.
(Edit: I'm not sure if this is his work or if it's that of someone else. I have googled and cannot find it, however i don't know it from anywhere else)
