VERSES FROM CHANGI PRISON
You can but stand and view the road
Through the lines of rusty wire
The road that leads to freedom
And your hearts desire
You can but dream of home sweet home
And pray to God above
To help, protect and deliver you
Back to those you love
It does not help to be depressed
Or grouse on grouse keep piling
But with courage look on the bright side
And with your chin up, keep on smiling
