Remembrance Day.....
Lost my new poppy..was pinned on fast
Seems them soldiers have the last laugh
Reminding us, they are still proud
Looking for "My Poppy"...their jokes allowed.
I pinned it firm over my heart
Taped it, bent it, not we to part
Low and behold...Poppies Gone...
Good name, for a Remembrance Song...!!
I feel bad if my Poppy not seen
This special memory, lost boyhood dreams
Gave their lives for us we know
But Poppies are sold...wherever we go.
So I purchase another..smile goes with
No my friend not really a twit
I accept the game, old soldiers play
Re-pin "this one" proudly..."it's Remembrance Day."
Footnote:
I am sure poppies don't just fall from clothing, I feel they are letting us know
the gesture sure is appreciated by they that gave it their all on the fields of freedom battles.
So if you lose your Poppy...a soldier is saying "Thanks" for remembering them.
Purchase another....their price paid was greater than a few coins dropped in a box.
