While awaiting the arrival of batches of wounded, he would watch the men at work in the burial plots which were quickly filling up. Then McCrae and his unit were relieved. "We are weary in body and wearier in mind. The general , impression in my mind is one of a nightmare," he wrote home. But McCrae came out of Ypres with 13 lines scrawled on a scrap of paper. The lines were the poem which started: "In Flanders field the poppies blow..." These were the lines which are enshrined enshrined in the hearts of all soldiers who heard in them their innermost thoughts. McCrae was their voice. The poem circulated as does a folk song, by living word of mouth. Men learned it with their hearts. In the United States, the poem inspired inspired the American Legion to adopt the poppy as the symbol of Remembrance. In Canada the poppy was officially officially adopted by the Great War Veterans Association in 1921 on the suggestion of a Mrs. E. Guerin of France. But there is little doubt that the impact of McCrae's poem influenced influenced this decision. the poem speaks of Flanders fields. But the subject is universal: the fear that in death we will be forgotten, that death will have been in vain. The spirit of true Remembrance, as symbolized by the poppy, must be our eternal answer which belies those fears. In Flanders Fields In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our places; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scare heard amid the guns below We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunSet glow, Loved, and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields. 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. John McCrae USE, RECYCLE." Recycling Week is fast approaching, approaching, but we can begin now to determine what we can do to reduce waste.
