Not the Most Boring American Legion Meeting Ever
The coffee was good, the stories were old
Of days when we mumbling men were bold
And young and trim, slender of waist
Leaping to our duties all in haste
And now we sit in the parish hall
Our waists are large, our muscles small
But “with advantages”1 we dare think back
When the word was not “reflect,” but “Attack!”
The coffee is good, even when we are old
And our memories warm, tho’ the nights are cold
1Henry V
