Remembrance
poppy

This is the silence which is pain
for those who will not speak again

or stir to stand here in the sun
who are to deeper silence gone

were we to count them, one-by-one
we’d need to stand here in the sun
until the sun and moon were gone

this is the silence which shouts out
do not forget.
                            We shall, no doubt.
