THE 1944 ROUNDUP .JL JL JC JL JL JL JC JC JL -J u 'W r' 3 J The Poppy Bloom V' rf? Z The poppy bloom sways in the soft breeze. The poppy bloom casts its shadow o'er the countless graves Casts its shadow over mounds of earth, g In which men lie and slowly return whence they camel Over mounds of earth in which are those Who gave their lives that we might not be slaves. 3 The poppy bloom is as red as the reddest blood Of men who lie in mounds of earth, Of men who died in agony and pain, Q.: Of men who died in the desert sands And lost their lives in trenches full of rain. Why should the shadow of such a humble flower 3. Be thrown upon this sacred spot Where lie the men who died in desert sands And lost their lives in trenches full of rain? gm Because its beauty is like the beauty of a mother's smile- A mother who gave her son from her tender arms To fight in this great struggle of mankind. Because its color is as red as the blood 3' He shed in the desert sands and rain filled trench To keep forever on the earth all things worthwhile. Because this flower is a sacred bloom 3 Made by God to cast its shadow over mounds of earth- Over mounds of earth in which men lie Who gave their lives in the desert sands R, And lost their lives in trenches full of rain. The poppy bloom sways in the soft breeze. The poppy bloom casts its shadow o'er the countless graves: ta, Casts its shadow over mounds of earth, In which men lie and slowly return from whence they came: Over mounds of earth in which are those Who gave their lives that we might not be slaves. 3' -Charles Dickson P1 'tr 'sr 'tt' SC 'IC 'sc 2651?
