Brave Red Poppies

Brave red poppies how you stand
proud honorable among men
men who fight in your name
buy a poppy they are all the same
just a number i don't think so
military lifestyles no joke
called to arms quick to leave
so many tears behind your reprieve
long lost friends
men of our time
we look to you
we remember you shine
