(no subject)

Fading light dims the sight
And a star gems the sky, gleaming bright
From afar drawing nigh,
Falls the night.

Day is done, gone the sun
From the lake, from the hills, from the sky
All is well, safely rest;
God is nigh.

Then goodnight, peaceful night;
Till the light of the dawn shineth bright.
God is near, do not fear,
Friend, goodnight.

'Tis. I forgot all about it until I was trying to take Morgan to school this morning, and saw my roommate's keys still here. No work = no school... *lightbulb finally goes off* Oh yeeeah...

It took a post from a friend of mine visiting your country right now before I could work out what the poetry and flags in my Friends list were about.

We have ANZAC day, a bit earlier in the year. The big service in the park is always run by the Navy, for some reason.
