(402) 895-1324 In Flanders Field
|
Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, MD (1872-1918) Canadian Army   
In Flanders field, the poppies grow Beneath the crosses row on row that mark our place; And in the sky The lark 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 field. 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 field. |
