Where Poppies Bloom
Where Poppies Bloom
In Flanders lies scores of graves
Where poppies grow and salute the brave
Poppies with their petals red,
remind us all that blood was shed
To save us all from condemnation,
to make our land a better nation
Young men and women in their prime
Gave up their lives to better mine
So when remembrance day comes around
Like poppies in their sacred ground
I too will salute the brave,
Whose lives were lost, for mine to save,
And thank those souls lost all too soon
And remember them where poppies bloom.
