In Rememberance

by John McCrae, May 1915

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

Lest we forget.

Tattooed a poppy on my chest Thursday, so it would be there on the 11th...

Damn awkward to do by myself, so the lines look seriously amateur, but the colors went in a treat :victory: I figure rememberance is a permanantly thing, not just one day on the year :) A huge thanks to those who have served, and who continue to do so :drinks:
