Echoes of Valour - A poem of remembrance

In the fields where poppies sway,

The echoes of the brave forever stay.

From their home to distant shores,

Their courage lives, forever soars.

From mountains high to the prairies wide,

Their courage flows like the changing tide.

For freedom’s light, they stood their ground,

In every tear, our love is found.

Each name engraved on stone so cold,

A tale of valor and strength retold.

They walked through shadows, faced fear and pain,

For love of country, their sacrifice was gained.

So let us remember with hearts open wide,

The strength of our past and the hope that abides.

For those who have served and those who still fight,

We pledge our devotion in honor of their might.

Now we must pause and bow our heads,

For those who have fought and those who have bled.

In silence deep, we honor all,

Their legacy shall never fall.

So to all the soldiers, forever true,

I can only give two words: “thank you”.
