'All's Well!' by John Oxenham
"All's Well!" by John Oxenham is a collection of poems written in the early 20th century, specifically during the tumultuous period of World War I. The work is dedicated to soldiers and their families, reflecting themes of duty, sacrifice, and the hope for a brighter future. The verses are both a tribute to those fighting at the front and a message of comfort to those left behind, emphasizing faith and the divine
promise of justice and peace. At the start of the volume, Oxenham expresses deep sympathy and admiration for soldiers and their loved ones, establishing the tone of reverence for their sacrifices. In the foreword, he acknowledges the horrors of war while simultaneously calling for resilience and hope, asserting that the worst of human nature can yield opportunities for displaying the best qualities. The poems that follow touch upon profound topics such as loss, bravery, and the enduring strength of faith, invoking both spiritual solace and an ethical call to action for a better future. Through rich imagery and heartfelt sentiment, the opening of "All's Well!" sets the stage for a reflective exploration of human dignity amidst the ravages of war.
