His father penned the following poem and is dedicated to the
Late Lance-Corporal Cecil B. Lewis and all Australian Heroes
who have made the supreme sacrifice in France............
Somewhere in France there's a sacred spot,
'Tis a grave, just newly made.
And it's sheltering our boy from perils and ills
With which life's battlie is played.
He has finished his part, we must still keep on,
Trying, like him, to be brave;
Our sacrifice is in what we have lost,
His was in what he gave.
Somewhere in France his is laid to rest,
His life's work truly done,
A sacrifice for Liberty
Ere life had scarce begun.
We know that his presence from home is gone,
We know there's a vacant chair,
But with happy thoughts we can picture him,
As though he were really there. Somewhere in France - no matter where -
He was just as near to Heaven
As though he had lain on his bed at home
When the signal to 'Cease' was given.
He has borne his Cross, he has gained his Crown,
Though he lies in a far-off grave;
And we think of his life: a duly done,
Manly, unselfish and brave.
C.W. Lewis
