After hearing so much about Wade's speech after Raw went off the air, especially the quote "I'll always have the flag on my trunks and the poppy over my heart", as well as Remembrance/Veteran's Day coming up, I decided that this needed to be posted. As a Veteran, the poppy is a very important symbol to me and to servicemembers, past and present, all over the world.
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.

I think that's very cool what you said there.
