Remembering
Today 11th month ,11th day ,11th hour we in Canada we remember the fallen soliders that gave their lifes for all our freedom . Freedom is not given it is earned . for that I am grateful for our Arm Forces and all the ones around the world that has given their lifes for our freedom.
IN FLANDERS FIELDS
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.
