Poppy

Today is a day when I will stop to ponder,
All the lives lost I will start to wonder,
Imagine the lives falling down,
Imagine the sadness all around.

Today I will help to remember,
Why this is the 11th of November,
Today I will wear my poppy with pride,
Ghosts of past soldiers, standing by my side.

Today I represent, thousands of dead,
Wearing a flower, a flower bright red,
For this symbolises, ones once gone,
And I am not the only one.

So stand with me now, to remember the soldiers,
I will do so until the day I die,
Wear your poppy with pride,
Imagine me standing, proudly at your side
