The poppy <br />What does it really mean? <br />No one really knows <br />The red; <br />Is it for the blood <br />That was shed in many, many wars? <br />Or for the long lost love <br />Of the soilders country, <br />And their many sacrafices, <br />And loving families? <br />The silver pin; <br />is it for <br />using as a small wepon <br />that was given to you for almost nothing <br />to hurt yourself and others? <br />Or is it for safely <br />Putting the poppy on <br />So you wont <br />loose it and loose <br />the meaning of the <br />poppy itself? <br />The black; <br />Is it for the hate <br />That’s all over the world? <br />Or for the black pupuil <br />Shrinking as a man dies <br />in a battle field? <br />No one really knows <br />The poppy.<br /><br />Heather Stephens<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-poppy-3/
