Lest we forget
by Beverlee Blampied (c)

Remembering to take a minute of silence
Each of us lost in personal thought
Many with tears, on November eleventh - tense
Each of us remembering all we have been taught
Memories of the soldiers who have bravely died
Bringing our world together - coast to coast
Eulogies are being read, remaining veterans sigh
Remembrance abounds - the heroes are honoured
        
           As the bugle plays the last post
