Do you know the poem In Flanders Fields? It was written by a Canadian back in 1915 - very haunting and appropriate:<br />In Flanders fields the poppies blow <br />Between the crosses, row on row<br />That mark our place; and in the sky<br />The larks, still bravely singing, fly<br />Scarce heard amid the guns below.<br /><br />We are the Dead. Short days ago<br />We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,<br />Loved and were loved, and now we lie<br />In Flanders fields.<br /><br />Take up our quarrel with the foe:<br />To you from failing hands we throw<br />The torch; be yours to hold it high.<br />If ye break faith with us who die<br />We shall not sleep, though poppies grow<br />In Flanders fields.<br /><br />That gives me goosebumps :/Sandra :)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16239494415344028806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4902503112918417582.post-76096423872188419702013-11-11T14:46:25.640+00:002013-11-11T14:46:25.640+00:00I hate the paper ones, so I asked if they had anyt...I hate the paper ones, so I asked if they had anything else, they offered me a tiny metal one, but I said it was too small, so they gave me a MASSIVE fabric one...now I look like someone who's showing off about donating *facepalm*<br />Samanthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07177176453011247321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4902503112918417582.post-4533978267022594812013-11-11T13:13:27.825+00:002013-11-11T13:13:27.825+00:00I just love that poppy!!!!
