Forever And Always

My grandad fought upon them fields, where poppies bloom and grew,
Where men would stand and fight, and be friends with all but a few,
Gun shots sounded, screams were heard,
Men would fall then not be stirred,
A place so full of violence, so full of hatred too,
Yet through their veins, was love coursing through and through,
Every man and every boy, did not only win the war,
But they won a place in all our hearts, that will stay forever more,
Cometh' the hour, cometh' the man, or so the saying goes,
Let us forever remember these men, and all that they have lost at the hands of our foes,
There will always be a place for them, soldiers present and past,
Always remember them, let their legacy forever last.

In Flanders Field / In English Towns

In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below.

Remember remember. The 11th of November. 'Cause men died in war for us. Gas may have killed. And guns may have thrilled. But on the 11of November it stopped. People suffered, got injured and died,.

Poppy Fields

The fields covered in vibrant red. Too many have lost their lives, Are dead. Deafening gunfire has just ceased, Man proven once again to be the beast.

"Ready!" His heartbeat like the artillery boom, reminding him why he had fled. He had run away from the trenches, he had run for he feared being dead.

Blue Eyes

It was cold and wet in the trenches, the great war of 1914. Samuel was a soldier now, three days on the frontline, still 'green'. Not accustomed to the blood and dirt.
