Remembrance day..

Remembrance Day marks the anniversary of the armitice which ended the First World War.In small country towns and our cities many people mark the occasion with a service, a visit to a loved ones grave site, or like me just a special thought to all those who died to make our world a better place full of hope and freedom.

The poppy has become the icon of Remembrance Day. A flower so sublime yet evoking such emotion.
Its beauty is in the very essence of its simplicity.
I thought that I would leave you with these images.
 
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
between the crosses row by row...
We will not forget.
