ning was cold and dreary and my mind was as cloudy as the drab sky above Angry at the world and ihe people mil I walked swiftly lost in my own thoughts Almost mechanically I drew my coat around myself and sat down on the seasoned park bench beside the cenotaph commemorating the men killed In the World Wars and the Korean War There I stayed seeing no one who passed by and about nothing but by own problems Then out of the corner of my eye I nolle ed a stooped figure slowly making way in the brisk wind Wllh his head down and gnarled hands clutching his overcoat the old gentleman walked as though every step were an effort Unaware of my presence the man stop- pod nearby He drew himself up with ty His eyes held a look of pride Following his gaze I saw that the old gentleman eyes were upon the cenotaph which waa newly laden in wreaths Probably he was a veteran of one of the wars I smiled and looked back to him His eyes were no longer on the He was staring into the grass near the bench where I sat Tears welled up in his eyes Sadlyheshookhisheadandstartedoff down the street I was puzzled What object could make a man as I had just seen so distressed My eyes searched the ground for what was lying there there it was a poppy It was not even real Just a simple plastic poppy was on the ground I frowned How could such a forlorn little flower make a man so heavy hearted What did it matter Day was already over Then I realized how much that poppy meant not just a scrap of plastic It stood for important things It was peace and freedom not only mine but the peace and freedom of my family and friends and neighbours Yet it was more than these That poppy the soldiers Soldiers fighting at Ridge and at Dieppe It was these men fighting for their freedom and freedom for the world It was their families back home in Canada ly there on the soggy ground I shrugged Remembrance Day was That poppy wouldn matter again until next year I tried to think of my own concerns but concentrate My mind wandered Once again I saw the old man face as the tears came into his eyes I saw the poppy lying in the grass and was ashamed Remembering the soldiers who fought for Canada was not just a yearly obligation Their gifl of peace lasts all year round and so should their memories I had sat here moments before angry at the world when those men loved the world so much that they gave their youth many their lives for us These were the people lo be grateful to not just on Remembrance Day but every day for they were the ones who earned our freedom For the first time that day the world seemed friendly to me I knelt down rescued the poppy from the wet grass and proudly pinned it to my coat The rest of the world might have thought It was just a bat and shabby poppy but to me it was specialfor now I
