Poppy Remembrance Day
Remember those that fell in battle
Or whose wounds were hard to bare
Remember those that gave their life
So that Freedom we could share.
Remember those in History, their country did they serve
Today our soldiers need us, the support they so deserve
A Poppy wear with pride as you remember those that fell
As memories of their sacrifice, in our hearts our pride does swell.
Remember too the soldiers brave who serve our lands today
Remember those who put their lives at risk every single day
Not only is the Poppy for the fallen of long ago.
It helps maintain support, to keep our wounded soldiers on the go.
Poppy red is for the blood that soaked in fields of corn
The seeds of hope cast on the wind for a new dawn.
Wear your Poppy with Pride!
For all men and women who give their lives.
