almost anything from racy to embracey
Poppy day thoughts…..
I am not a badge of honour,
I am not a racist smear,
I am not a fashion statement,
To be worn but once a year,
I am not glorification
Of conflict or of war.
I am not a paper ornament
A token,
I am more.
I am a loving memory,
Of a father or a son,
A permanent reminder
Of each and every one.
I’m paper or enamel
I’m old or shining new,
I’m a way of saying thank you,
To every one of you.
I am a simple poppy
A Reminder to you all,
That courage faith and honour,
Will stand where heroes fall.
what a lovely poem. and so to the point
A nice poem, but I don’t get the title.
Think ‘Nosey’ is meaning a Poppy now, is not only sold in flower form, but they come printed on items of clothing, jewellery etc. Fantastic poem though Nosy, well done.
I love the Poem but didn’t Shadow post this last week?
Yes..it is by Paul Hunter.
