SOMME POPPIES
Alan Skerritt
© All rights reserved
  
Your bodies, blood and bones
Tired, spilt, broken
Have blessed Somme soil
Sanctified Somme soil.
 
Your indomitable spirit
Issues as new life
Simple, not complex
As all great truths are...

​Producing Poppies
Crisp colour
Plain
Red for the dead
Born again
Red for sunset
 
Interrupting
Solemn Somme Slumber
To soften those fields
Of cruel carnage
To remove the rage
With painted poppies of peace.
