  CHECK READING LIST (1)  

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 among the guns below.
      - In Flanders Fields (We shall not Sleep)
        [Poppies]

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.
      - In Flanders' Fields (We shall not Sleep)
        [War]
