Poppies by Felicity W, Year 8

In fields where silence fell,
flowers bloom, bright and red,
poppies sway, gentle tokens of life
amidst echoes of the past.

Soldiers marched, hearts heavy with dreams,
brave souls on the battlefield,
where thunder roared,
and the skies stained with ash.

They fought for whispers of peace,
for lullabies of home,
for the laughter that once rang
through orchards and fields.

Each step forward, a step into shadows,
each breath, a promise held tight—
to shield the world from further sorrow,
to paint a future with hues of joy.

And now, when the sun kisses the earth,
as dusk settles soft and slow,
the poppies remind us—
freedom is a fragile gift.

In their dance, a tale of courage,
a wish that no child knows the fear,
that once lingered in the air,
and how together, peace is finally won.
