Flanders Visit

 

 

There They Stand In Silence

 

Upon This Field Of Green

 

Bent And Humble

 

With Canes In Hand

 

Where Long Past

 

Their Youth They Lost

 

Amid The Poppies Red

 

Now In Awkward Silence

 

Apart From Wives And Children

 

They Commune With Shades

 

Awakened By Their Visit

 

To This Verdant Field

 

Where Poppies Hid The Carnage

 

For Those Brief Spring Days

 

Oh So Long Ago

 

In The War To End All Wars
