Flowers 2

Tony36

Flowers grow uupon 

The graves of the  lost

Those that gave their all 

For a greater cause 

 

Freedom was the call

These men and women answered 

They gave their all

 

Now they rest

Within the ground 

Inspiring others

To hear the sound

Of freedom 

Of peace 

 

Flowers grow upon 

The graves of the lost

Those that gave their all

For a greater cause

 

FREEDOM IS NOT FREE

    Thanks TONY ~ Because of the price they paid it is important for us to respect our CENOTAPHS and War Cemeteries and place poppies and other flowers. The saddest War Cemeteries are the Gerrman Ones for those who fell in WW2 some as young as 13 others as old as 75 ~ so sad. BRIAN New Fusion Poem ~ My Favorite Fruit ~ please add a STANZA ~ thanks BRIAN
