BRAVE SEVEN By John Herlihy PRELUDE: seven men, seven words, seven verses, seven thoughts. Seven is a sacred number to commemorate the valiant dead. One – two – three – four – five – six - seven; Each man fully aiding his fellow brethren; Brave were their hearts before the fall; Upon earth they died a slow crawl; One of them was a young pastor; He ended up dying mercifully the faster; Every one now together in peaceful Heaven. EPITAPH: The war thus ended the brave seven.

I'm not sure who the "Brave Seven" were, but your verses seem to commemorate some event in history worth noting.
