Who's for the Game by Jessie Pope - Summary Analysis - Who's for the Game by Jessie Pope
1868 -1941
Who’s for the game, the biggest that’s played,
The red crashing game of a fight?
Who’ll grip and tackle the job unafraid?
And who thinks he’d rather sit tight?
Who’ll toe the line for the signal to ‘Go!’?
Who’ll give his country a hand?
Who wants a turn to himself in the show?
And who wants a seat in the stand?
Who knows it won’t be a picnic - not much-
Yet eagerly shoulders a gun?
Who would much rather come back with a crutch
Than lie low and be out of the fun?
Come along, lads -
But you’ll come on all right -
For there’s only one course to pursue,
Your country is up to her neck in a fight,
And she’s looking and calling for you.

I wonder how many of Jessie Pope’s children ( if she had any) fought in the trenches of the First World War. Did this woman have a family of her own???
