Forget Us Not

Here we lie beneath the poppies Blowing in the Flanders air Do not forget our sacrifice Do not forget that we were there Young men forged in heat of battle Neighbors, brothers, sons Lost in time, with just our markers Lost to lie, beneath the sun Remember us as men of valor Remember what we came to do We came, and died, do not forget us We gave our lives up, just for you Forget us not, beneath the poppies Where the sky is no longer dark Remember us as long dead heroes We came, we fought, we left our mark Forget us not, please pass the torch on Forget us not, more than this day Forget us not, we were all soldiers And we remain so....all the way!!!

This is certainly a salute to all our service people who gave their lives for us. And we should never forget them. Good poem and an eye opener for us.....Donna
