The Poppy

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 am paper or enamel

I am old or shining new

I'm a way of saying thank you

To every one of you

I am a simple POPPY

I reminder to you all

That courage faith and honour

Will stand where heroes fall.

Brighton - even Hove!

A friend of mine is called Poppy. I won't forget her in a hurry
