REMEMBRANCE DAY POEM for 2014 Our respect is boundless, our hearts filled with pride But saddness gathers round us, as we remember those left behind Our Comrades who fell into life’s darkness, stand forever erect above Straight and true today, as those we knew and loved Their victory over death would bring hope to all mankind The price they paid was absolute, so remember them with pride Carry their glorious Standard forward with your head held high Remembering in our hearts and minds our dead will never die Today life is clouded by those who do not show Understanding or tolerance, the things we all should know Our Comrades of the glorious past must watch and wonder why Has the human cost of freedom been forgotten as time goes by So now remember those who sent us on our way Without their sacrifice we would not have a life today Their legacy is one of pride, hope and justice for all We all carry their baton, just don’t let it fall August 2014 Russell J Carr
