Is this the correct date because it would then have been after the end if WWI. --JBellis 12:37, 6 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
I fixed the error by adding the information about the poem's origins; you are right, the poem was written in 1915 but reprinted in 1919. I also made a few general fixes... well, a lot of general fixes and added an image. Mrathel (talk) 20:53, 6 May 2009 (UTC)Reply
