POPPIES FALL

I watch the clock just turning
Turning hand across its' hand
And watch the bonfire burning
And waves upon the sand
I watch the clouds go sailing
Across a pale blue sky
And hear the seagulls wailing
As over cliffs they fly
I watch the sun just setting
A red glow up on high
And yes it is upsetting
When someone close does die
But ev'ry day's a new day
Bringing hope again to all
But November, I remember
When the poppies fall.

The cycle of life in its completeness.  Much enjoyed.
