Remembrance Poems

In Flanders fields the poppies blowBetween the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place and in the skyThe larks, still bravely singing, flyScarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the dead, short days agoWe lived, felt down, saw sunset glow,Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In flanders field.
Take up our quarrel with the foe;To you from failing hands we throwThe 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.
We will remember....
The 11th day of the 11th month2 minutes silence to rememberThe muddy battlefields, uglyThe young men who died
Their families
They helped us to liveThose brave soldiers who diedLike poppies in rows and rows

So dark so dull where the soldiers foughtIn the trenches, bombed out
Out came the poppies to make the land brightDropped young like those who fought and died
The poppies became a symbolfor friends and family and
those who survived, devastated
“we looked after our people”Say the proud soldiers in the ground
We will never forget

The red is to remember the bloodfor when they got killed
We will remember all of thosewho fought for us

Poppies growing all aroundLay with the soldiers in the ground
Many men have fought many years agoFamily, homes, they never wanted to let go
This is why we should careFor them, nobody is there
On those ugly fields of mud and bombsThose poppies gave love and hope
We will never forget

Where the soldiers lay row by row

I feel really sad for those who diedThey saved our country from others
I wish war would stopThe soldiers would rise from the grave
To see the joy they have brought
The battle grounds are goneThe bloody fields are goneBut the poppies remain
They grow but die too soonWe will remember those blood red fields

Cross’s in linesSide by side in the fields where they lie
Remember those soldiers once moreThe horror they saw or heard
They fought for us, few survivedThe red of the poppiesThe red of the blood
Our lives wouldn’t be the sameWithout those cross’s in linesThis is why we remember
Thank you
