Scarlet SkirtsA Poem by Chris Shaw
We count the cost of those we've lost,
their sacrifice, the price they paid. The blood they shed, our honoured dead, their hallowed memory will not fade. So we recall with passing years, the tears, a stream of solemn flow and we remember all those deaths in fields where scarlet poppies grow.
