A Poem for Anzac Day

Why are they selling poppies, Mummy? The heart of the poppy is black, Mummy
Selling poppies in town today. Why does it have to be black?
The poppies, child, are flowers of love Black, my child, is the symbol of grief
For the men who marched away For the men who never came back

But why have they chosen a poppy, Mummy?

But why, Mummy are you crying so?
Why not a beautiful rose?
Your tears are giving you pain
Because my child, men fought and died
My tears are my fears for you my child
In the fields where the poppies grow
For the world is forgetting again.
Author Unknown
But why are the poppies so red, Mummy?
Why are the poppies so red?
Red is the colour of blood, my child
The blood that our soldiers shed
