Day 96 A Day to Remember

Day 96 A Day to Remember

This turned out to truly be a day to remember for both Maggi and me, however more of that when the time is right.

Although we have passed the eleventh hour of the eleventh month we are still remembering as we lead up to the annual services this Sunday across this great nation.

I thought I’d pick some of my favourite war poems for the next three days before heading back to my subject of Nitric Oxide Therapy, ProArgi9+ and the great company behind all of these amazing supplements, Synergy Worldwide who are currently delivering their own weekend to remember with their on line annual 2021 Summit. We are looking forward to day two later this afternoon.

In Flanders Fields

BY JOHN MCCRAE

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.

Some of the recent re-mages colour footage of WW1 has been breath taking, it somehow makes it even more poignant and painful to see the faces of the young soldiers so clearly rather than the grainy black and whit images we have been so accustomed too.
