| Summary | "Carry On!" by Virna Sheard is a poignant collection of war poetry published during the early 20th century, specifically in the context of World War I. As a heartfelt response to the widespread devastation and loss caused by the war, the poems reflect themes of bravery, sacrifice, and remembrance, capturing the emotional landscape surrounding the conflict. The book serves both as a tribute to the fallen and an encouragement for those who remain to carry on amidst grief and hardship. The poems in "Carry On!" explore the complexities of love, loss, and the indomitable spirit of humanity during wartime. Through a mix of vivid imagery and emotional resonance, Sheard addresses the pain of separation and mourning, as well as the hope that persists despite the horrors of war. In pieces like "The Young Knights" and "The Cry," she memorializes those who have sacrificed their lives, while advocating for resilience and the continuation of life in the face of adversity. The work ultimately conveys a powerful message of perseverance, urging the living to honor the memory of those who fought and fell by holding steadfast to their dreams and ideals.
