: :                           In Flanders Field 
: :            By: Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, MD (1872-1918) 
: :                               Canadian Army 

: :                      IN FLANDERS FIELDS the poppies blow 
: :                         Between the crosses, row on row, 
: :                        That mark our place, and in the sky 
: :                         The larks, still bravely singing, fly 
: :                         Scarce heard amid the guns below. 

: :                          We are the Dead. Short days ago 
: :                        We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, 
: :                       Loved and were loved, and now we lie 
: :                                In Flanders fields. 

: :                         Take up our quarrel with the foe: 
: :                         To you from failing hands we throw 
: :                         The torch; be yours to hold it high. 
: :                          If ye break faith with us who die 
: :                      We shall not sleep, though poppies grow 
: :                                In Flanders fields.
