No mere flower whose crimsoned petals
Bloom and droo and fall
Before each setting sun
But more—
It typified the blood of those
Who died but yesterday
Upon the shell-torn fields of France—
It symbolizes all too well
The sacrifice of those
Who walk the silent valleys of the deep.
It brings to us the'wind-tossed sea
Which shelters them.
Within its heart we see
The sti^lj white crosses
Row" on narrow row
Which sentinel the hills
Where sleep the countless numbers—
Our Legion of the Dead.
And, glancing deeper still
Within the poppy’s bleeding heart
We see those others
On their beds of pain,
Or stumbling haltingly
Along thd Way of Life—
The Sick, the Lame, the Blind.
.And side by side with them
The widowed mother, the orphan and the wife.
A simple flower, *tis true,
3ut more—
A symbol of that sacrifice
Which made and kept us free.
And so,
Lost memory dim with time
To wear
A POPPY FOR REMEMBRANCE.
