Today is Memorial Day in the United States, a day set aside to remember those who gave their lives while serving in one of the branches of the United States.
One of the most visible symbols of Memorial Day is that of the poppy, a flower made famous by John McCrae in his poem “In Flanders Field.” This is that poem.
In Flanders 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, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.
Take up our 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 grow
In Flanders fields.
