"In Flanders Fields" is a poem by the Canadian poet, soldier, and physician John McCrae. McCrae wrote the poem in 1915 as a memorial to those who died in a World War I battle fought in Ypres Salient (Belgium) and were buried in a makeshift grave marked by bright red poppies. It was a common sight in Flanders Fields for soldiers to pass through fields of poppies and to send pressed poppies home to their loved ones. The poem also addresses the question of the next generation's responsibility to carry on the soldiers' battle. It's enduring legacy continues to be felt today, with the poppy serving as a symbol of remembrance for those who have died in service to their country.

"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 falling 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." -John McCrae- We Remember. #JohnMcCrae #InFlandersFields #remembranceday #veteransday #griefandloss #sacrifice #poetry #photography #Rome #crimsononshatteredglass #stephanymoeller #maineartist (at Rome, Italy) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck1u2sRORWu/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Somewhere in #America with a #veteran #VFW #InFlandersFields BY #JOHNMCCRAE 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.

In Flander's Fields By John McCrae "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." As we spend times with our families today, take time to remember the service men and women who have given it all so we can. #poppy #poppies #inflandersfields #flandersfields #johnmccrae #memorialday #memorialdayweekend #military #america #art #artwork #drawing #colorpencil #flowers #flowerstagram (at Lowndesboro, Alabama) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx-t13NBox-/?igshid=iaex18du43o6
