Of Christmas Past

A new dawn has come and a Christmas is past,

Memories made to last,

Of kissing under the mistletoe,

Of carol singing, 

Christmas present wrapping,

Mulled wine and sleigh bells ringing,

Unwrapping of the presents hidden under the tree,

Presents from you,

Presents from me,

Of children's laughter,

The joy that it brings,

Now to start to planning for a Christmas next year....

Never Forget Brothers in Arms

No greater love has no one than this,

to lay down one’s life for one’s friends: John:15:13

Brother in Arms I here your song, Let no one be left behind, Never forget the sacrifice made, 11:11

Poppy Fields of Red

 

Running in the poppy fields of red,

Innocent of the history it represents,

The blood that has been shed, Playing games with stirring petals, A memory to the dead, Eating poppy heads getting high on the seeds, Laying in a field and gazing at the sky, Day dreaming, Questioning why.
