In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
- John McCrae, May 1915
Today marks the day of remembrance for our fallen, Our heroes and veterans and those still fighting. I and many people respect this day and honour it, I felt like I shall do the same and spread it on here. I am unsure if any of you took part in the 1 minute silence today at 11 O'Clock but if you did that is great!
