~ Remembrance ~

Today is the day
we honor those that have served in war




they are the reason we have the freedoms
we have today



seeing a veteran today
brings a tear to my eye



but they also make my heart proud



we wear a poppy on our lapel
to honor these brave men and women




I wear mine with pride




true north strong and free


Oh Canada
we stand on guard for thee

  2. Oh my... tears are falling! My grandpa passed on a couple years ago, and he always wore a poppy on his lapel.... he was a PROUD veteran, and sold the red poppies any chance he could.

    Gorgeous photos as always. Thanks for the memory sweet friend!
