Armistice Day

Listen to poem:
The barbed wires gone the craters filled in But the poppy's still grow on Flanders fields men's tears have been wiped and burials done But the poppy's still grow on Flanders fields young men died because old men lied But the poppy's still grow on Flanders fields A nation bows its head in prayer this day But the poppy's still grow on Flanders fields stop the killing end these wars and you will not need poppy's in a hundred years .
