In Flanders fields the poppies blow For a hundred years they tell us so But some wear white on their chest For peace, they say, not war is best Though ISIS' knives make blood to flow Where are the Dead, tanks through Mosul show They litter the streets as Daesh crow Their faith is right- then kill the rest In dusty fields. Again take up guns ‘gainst the foe. To us from pleading hands they throw To bring back peace at their behest Through war so we may give them rest In every field. With Armistice Day day comming up and seeing a white poppy I thought I would write this based on John McCrae's famous In Flanders Fields
