Poem of remembrance
Dear Editor:
Each year as we pin on the crimson poppy Let us so proudly recall those dear names inscribed on the wall. Choose just one - who so bravely cheerily, waved and died On some farmers lonely plough field, his blood he bravely lost over there. Choose to remember that extra special one Our Father in Heaven for His own has chosen! For evermore those petals four will remind us Of the brave men who bled and died over there. That poppy can help us as we read the names on that wall For those boys tried to believe that this time they would really achieve That impossible War that would end all the wars With that blood red poppy daily recall, all those dear names on that wall.
Sytske Drijber, Rockwood
