401 www.on.legion.ca ONTARIO COMMAND A Field of Poppies, A Field of Peace. you fought, you died, you listened to the cries, The cries of those who were terrified. You took the leap, And now you sleep, In a field oh so filled with poppies. A poppy of peace, And now the war has ceased, you lay in a field of poppies. A poppy in my grasp, Just then I collapsed, Under the weight of my sorrow, You fought for my tomorrow, You lay in a field of peace. You are the dead, But the path to peace you led, And at the end of that path, A better tomorrow, And that’s what washes away my sorrow. You lay in a field of poppies, You lay in a field of peace.
