REMEMBRANCE DAY FRIDAY 11th November.

No likes yet ♦

I went to 3 minutes silence
to-day ran all the way
last post was played.
the peace was said

No one did a hand shake
or a a hug
to show
there special love

They shall not grow old,
as we that are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them,
nor the years condemn

All the going down of the sun
and in the morning
we will remember them
this was at the Peace statue to-day

One day not in my time
hope those that mourn
injured mentally and physically
all arms will be laid down
peace will be gained
.
all someone's loved ones
near and far
the children there
were a credit to all

And Terry Winstanley Worthing
singer may lost in x factor
but put on wow show brill;
raised money Help the heroes

Julie - I can only echo Pia's words.

This poem is a more than worthy tribute to those who gave their lives in the name of Freedom.

Hi Julie, good to see you posting something new, and very topical. It's always a sobering time of year when we see old soldiers lining up with civilians to honour lost comrades and friends. It is a stark reminder of the price of war. Well done.

Hi! Well at age 10 I was at the Britsh
Red cross, tiny little thing,and girl
much bigger and taller,her and I think!
had to carry the banner, in our uniforms,
across muddy green, Southwick where born.
To the war monument, so heavy,think was The
Trooping of the colour, maybe. Had to walk
one step,pause and carry on.
Well I had tried (IP) for Fireworks
last week, but after seeing show added
to it, the Wow show and time gone,plus
mentioned quite bit on here, be boring.
But explained scenery stars singing, and photos.
How can I send any copies, to Terry Winstanley!
Ordering Worthing Herald nearer, told not got every
week W.H.Smiths. Not a pushy person but good so many Ray took not in paper. Did you want any more! all
different. We have and stars. X factor thought bad.
Results. Oh! read England won then against Spain.
Not not thought anything up moment.
Still reading 'Lets Start Again. Ray's been dentist ok gold filling? just glues it back?
well can't think writing something yet! whoops
you missed spelling mistakes,in hurry.
I mentioned somewhere good get emails from olpesky and Bill the beach, of which answer if can write,right words. Used get some, but computer answered never went through!
Also couple bad ones on my own, don't know who they were thank goodness.
My brother is Jack so called John in Scotland?
Did you get anything nice for your birthday.
Very cold out to-day.
As Archdeacon think blessing said Peace.
I knew too,but didn't notice me,on outside good.
And in our hearts and homes, difficult for all.
I see shelter may close, where I used go for church
Then bad replies. On a subject going on then.
So used cavalcaderl disguise julie. It was not AbcTales talking of, mine? nasty.
Well pop was navy man,brothers on H.M.S Bulwark
and other on H.M.S Ark Royal. Pop on Aircraft carrier not sure H.M.S Pretoria or Victorious
we once went on as kids. etc; not like awful war. Sommee my mum used talk of,one brother could only nod or say yes and no. Her father used wear helmet like, suppose brain or protection. Never knew?
Yes,have met few celeb;in show, or going shows then wait backstage stars. Now go own. But I am just me?
Big hug keep warm, drop line when ready!

Thanks lovely comment.
And Highhat's. I hope peace
to. As someone holy special
gave blessing there,not sure
correct title,incase am wrong!
Said Peace in our hearts, and families.
Church last one, always, gave hugs and kiss
on cheek all. Peace was said, no one did.
I met one wheelchair, hands bit blue!
Must been 20 little children there. Credit.
And Mayor. I mentioned Terry Winstanley,
x factor show from Worthing, as he put on,
show for the help the heroes, wondrful,now
Worthing Herald out,few photots in there and
x contestants 8 good, never got further through,
should have, in his show, raised Help the heroes
£6,000 very good. Sung To love somebody, and it's
a mans world lovley, we met and photoed all.
And spoke of AbcTales, hope will join.
Terry Winstanley from Tarring Worthing. Is in
Facebook too. No address I'm not,send photos we took. Not in our local paper.
N/home was good, but drank cold orange,day cnetre,
getting late,onto n/home,cold ice water,as tea hadn't arrived, after us singing,few of us. hour
we had,then tea. Oh! dear didn't agree with me next day, but made it to Peace statue,very cold wind.
Well wars are censeless really, prayer's are said
days of trenches,then kill, we can't bring loved ones back. Must be different way.
Hope your well. Still reading my 'Lets Start Again book and re-reading yours and all.
