Artist's Comments

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.
— Lt.-Col. John McCrae (1872 - 1918)

Tomorrow is Armistice Day. So I wanted to draw something nice for it. Back in school, I really felt a bond with the patriots who fought for our freedom when the bagpipes sounded, even if I'm an immigrant here. There's nothing I wouldn't do for Canada. I also really love bagpipes... Let's not forget the sacrifices that were made for our parents', ours, and many generations after ours' freedom and peace. So, tomorrow, don't forget to have your moment of silence. And remember the Commonwealth and many other countries in which our brethren are also sharing a moment of silence for the heroes that walked before us.

Je me souviens.

My brothers very lucky to be marching in a parade to the people who served and those who died. He's doing that with the rest of his military crew so it will be very great.

Lovely picture *wears her poppy*

I very upset that I have classes tomorrow. In America it's Veterans Day, where we remember all the people who have fought for our country.

My father is a vet so I'm really considering not going to school because tomorrow means so much to me.

so beautiful....

AND, it's really nice to see art for the occasion. It's kind of sad that i haven't seen anything really (art-wise) for Remembrance day floating around, though I'm sure it's there :\

The only time I cry is when the amount of peanut butter overpowers the jelly.

Dinosaurs are liars. They seem nice at first, but once you get to know them for a while, you'll understand what they really are.

Liars.
