Armistice day

Armistice day

Pretty poppies swaying in a field is such a bright red beautiful delight.. tho it signifies when our lost war heroes had no choice but to flee and fight, thousands of young lads all sent away in vain.. serving the Queen and country..suffering years of blighted pain

In amongst the bloody battle fields, deep in the earthy man-made trenches..thinking of loved ones they left behind and pining for their wenches.. gone was the tender loving care they left at home, in a precarious, perilous plight.. sodden boots saturated thru to the skin standing in that armegeddon site

Relying on each others comradeship, young lads turned into men..thrown down in the deep end of strife.. bloodshed over and over again..proudly wearing one’s red poppies is our annual way to say..
 “We honour our brave heroic soldiers, we commemorate them all on armistice day”

Amen to that JILL!!.....I have studied/researched much about the world wars as well as some of the civil wars throughout the world..... and the one thing that holds true in EVERY instance...... Soldiers do not like to talk about what happened there..... not intimately at least...... the phrase "War Is Hell!!" always seems to hold true!!.... this is a thoughtful and BEAUTIFLLY delivered tribute write!!......ALL STARS!!...... Bravo dear poet sister!!........LOVE & ROCKETS!!........T xo. : )
