The Purple Heart, continued

I've produced a chapbook of Helen Ainsworth's poems for children.  Calling it The Purple Heart and other poems.

Now these poems have been published, 100 years after they were written - and in the shadow of Newtown.   "Means of war", writes Helen Ainsworth - if only our nation can subdue the "means of war", we might deserve the Purple Heart (see previous post).

Still a most timely message.
