Eternal Poet

Poppies

In Rememberance of the fallen

Where valleys are lush with pastures new
Fresh and crisp, from morning dew;
There soil once sodden, with Soldiers blood
Poppies now stand, where soldiers stood.
 
Where birds fly high on freedoms wing
To greet this day, with song they sing;
There pilots flew, a perilous sky
Poppies would sway, to wave goodbye.
 
When you held the heads, of tearful eyes
They were not of men, but teenage boys;
There dying tears, for mothers care
Poppies would droop, in silent prayer.
 
See these crosses amass of white
further they stretch, till out of sight;
For in this grave, is where I will be
where my Poppy, stands, to remember me.

(1996)
