Remembrance Day

Take time to remember those who sacrificed for your freedom.
Seriously, it's a minute of silence, preferably to reflect.

In Flanders fields the poppies blow

Between the crosses, row on row,

That mark our place: and in the sky

The larks still bravely singing fly

Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the dead: Short days ago,

We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,

Loved and were loved: and now we lie

In Flanders fields!

Take up our quarrel with the foe

To you, from failing hands, we throw

The 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

Composed by Lt. Colonel John McCrea
at the battlefront on May 3, 1915 during
the second battle of Ypres, Belgium
