Remembrance Day

     Yesterday was Remembrance Day and since I didn't go on the internet yesterday,I will write about it today. Remebrance Day was the day in which the armistice was signed to end World War I-at the eleventh hour,on the eleventh day,of the eleventh month. Now,it is used as a day to remember all the other Canadian soldiers who died or fought in all other wars and in peacekeeping.

In Flander's 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,but now we lie

In Flander's fields.

Take up the 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 sleep,though poppies blow

In Flander's fields.
