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.

To those who fought and died so that Canada and the rest of the world could remain free, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts, and on this day of remembrance, we will never forget the greatest sacrifice you made for this country.

Remember to where a poppy on your left side for Today, and remember to take a moment of silence to remember the fallen and the hero's of years gone past.

Lest We Forget
