Reflection

What is this quote asking us to think about?

On Remembrance Day we also wear or place Poppies.

Apart from remembering and commemorating, why else?

Poppies are also worn by many people as a sign of hope.

What are we hoping for?

In Flanders Fieldsby John McCrae, May 1915

In Flanders fields the poppies blowBetween the crosses, row on row,

That mark our place; and in the skyThe 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 throwThe torch; be yours to hold it high.

If ye break faith with us who dieWe shall not sleep,

though poppies growIn Flanders fields.
