57285: From France

<p dir="ltr"> The spirit drank the café lights;<br> All the hot life that glittered there,<br> And heard men say to women gay,<br> 'Life is just so in France'.<br> The spirit dreams of café lights,<br> And golden faces and soft tones,<br> And hears men groan to broken men,<br> 'This is not Life in France'.<br> Heaped stones and a charred signboard<br> show<br> With grass between and dead folk under,<br> And some birds sing, while the spirit takes<br> wing.<br> And this is Life in France.</p>
