Last Post

(Bugle call commemorating the dead in war) In remembrance they stand, heads bowed Silent, remembering Nation's fallen flowers Humble before war memorial giving respect Soldiers, sailors, airmen, who never survived Fighting destructive wars, dead before their time Wreaths laid before memorial, nation remembering Last post played, bugle call, breaking the silence Chilling soul, weeping eyes, trembling hearts. They shall not be forgot taken in fury of war Falling bloody upon foreign battlefields Never seeing home, family, and friends again. They shall be remembered, each one valued By grateful nation freed from oppression war Dead, remembered with red poppies and bugle call.
