Veteran's Day, and an update
Hard to Believe it's Veteran's day and Ed and I have been together more than 2 months and still pretty much ridiculously happy together. Our finances are still tight, and there's no phone or 'Net at our house (Posting this from a friend's) But he just got a job, so things should be looking up financially soon.
As is my Tradition, I am posting this:
In Flanders Fields
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.
. Happy Veterans Day to all. Most espically to our servicemen and Women.. may they all be home soon.
