A joyous day

A day to remember

This wonderful day

The 11th of November


As the clock strikes eleven

The soldiers let out a relieved sigh

They embrace and rejoice

That they are not going to die


Large crowds have gathered

Celebrating in the street

The return of their fellow soldiers

And the Alliance's defeat


Now a poppy flower

Is used to remember this world war

So let us cross our fingers and wish

that there won't be any more

(A/N Yes I know there was a WW2 21yrs after this one, so let's hope there's no WW3 instead)


                                                       - By me

Hello

World war 1 ended on the 11th November 1918 at 11am exactly so this poem's based on that.

Also no offense if you support the triple Alliance.

Good bye for now.
