Wear Your Poppy With Pride Poem by Patricia Denise Newman

Wear Your Poppy With Pride

Rating: 5.0


Honour the men that died and wear your poppy with pride
Honour the girls that worked so hard and wear your poppy with pride
Honour those that survived conflict and wear your poppy with pride
For all these that gave us our freedom so wear your poppy with pride

Wear your poppy with pride as you go on your way
Look around you at the peace for which others gave their day
Teach your children the reason why we commemorate every year
This special November 11th with memories we hold dear

Support the Royal British Legion and wear your poppy with pride
Helping those service men and women injured as they tried
To keep and uphold the hard won peace that we enjoy today
Wear your poppy with pride on this Remembrance Day

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I wrote this poem a little before the upcoming Armistice Day we call Remembrance Day as the meaning is sometimes lost on the younger generation.
