Poetry of World War One

Who wrote - "'Jack fell as he’d have wished,' the Mother said, / And folded up the letter that she’d read. / 'The Colonel writes so nicely.' Something broke / In the tired voice that quavered to a choke. / She half looked up. 'We mothers are so proud / Of our dead soldiers.' Then her face was bowed."

Who wrote "When you see millions of the mouthless dead / Across your dreams in pale battalions go, / Say not soft things as other men have said, / That you'll remember. For you need not so"
