On this day, the poppy worn.
To show respect for those we mourn.
Our love is given to veterans, who gave battle cries.
The poppy is worn with heads held high.
For on this day, the fighting stopped.
The guns, the swords, the tanks all dropped.
Men were done, wanted to go home.
They wanted their families, to no more roam.
So we take a moment, the silence is given.
On the 11th hour, we are thankful and driven.
For without them, we wouldn't be free.
To live our lives, as we wish them to be.
Lest We Forget.
