Thoughts of Remembrance... Wishes for Peace...

a wreath bearer
a poppy holder,
a moment of silence,
of loved ones,
of strangers,
they all had someone,
who loved or cared,
whose heart broke,
when they got the call,
the letter,
or nothing at all,
just a simple sign,
the ones so dearest,
to see them fall,
a simple tear drop,
a wish for peace,
people right now,
in pain or misery,
with a simple wish,
a wreath bearer,
a poppy holder,
unspoken stories,
locked up tears,
horrible fears,
the soldiers who fell,
the children,
alone and scared,
a heart needing,
to be repaired,
a simple wish,
a glimmer of hope,
for loved ones we remember
