Powerful..  Joshua Dyer (aged 14) was tasked at school to write a poem

 for Remembrance Day.  An hour later (without any help) he produced this..

ONE THOUSAND MEN ARE WALKING

One thousand men are walking

Walking side by side

Singing songs from home

The spirit as their guide

They walk toward the light milord,

they walk towards the sun

they smoke and laugh and smile together

no foes to outrun.

These men live on forever

in the hearts of those they saved

a nation truly grateful

for the path of peace they paved.

They march as friends and comrades

but they do not march for war

step closer to salvation

a tranquil steady corps

the meadows lit with golden beams

a beacon for the brave

the emerald grass untrampled

a reward for what they gave.

They dream of those they left behind

and know they dream of them

forever in those poppy fields

there walks one thousand men
