Title: Rememberance day
Post by: bobby1361 on November 11, 2007, 05:37:02 AM

Today is the day we remember those lost in the wars.
Have a 2 minute silence at 11am for them.

I'm happy to say that an entire supermarket of shoppers and staff did indeed, stop, stand silent and I hope...remember.

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.

We are the dead, short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow
Loved, and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders Fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe,
To you, from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not rest, though poppies grow
In Flanders Fields

- J. McCrae, MD, May 3, 1915
