Bon matin messieurs,
Merci à Gunguru pour cet hommage....nous sommes libres grâce à leur sacrifice.
Avec votre permission, un peu d'histoire....
Voici le poème, intitulé "In Flanders Fields", rédigé par le Lieutenant -colonel John Mc Crae le lendemain du décès d'un ami au champ d'honneur:
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place: and in the sky
The larks still bravely singing fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the dead: Short days ago,
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved: and now we lie
In Flanders fields!
Take up our quarrel with the foe
To you, from failing hands, we throw
The torch: be yours to hold it high
If ye break faith with us who die,
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields
C'est l'origine du port du coquelicot (poppy) en souvenir le 11 novembre.
