In Flanders Fields by Lt. Col. John McCrae, Canadian physician, surgeon, poet, author, and artist, 3 May 1915 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.

On this day, we remember and honour the sacrifices of all Veterans of Canada who served in the First and Second World Wars, Korean War, Afghanistan War, and all other wars, recent and past. 🌺 🇨🇦

Lest we forget
Nous nous souviendrons
