Buy a Poppy

 

Will you buy a Poppy sir?

Will you wear it well?

For you will hear a band sir,

not a screaming shell.

It’s good to hear you’re well sir,

and feeling in the pink

Two minutes isn’t long sir,

to close your eyes and think.

Will you buy a Poppy sir?

Now that it’s November?

And more important,

may I ask sir, will you remember?

We see our children play and laugh,

we watch them as they grow.

We remember,

and we bless the men who made it so.

Will you pray sir, will you cry?

Yes sir, yes sir so will I.
