Memorial Reflections (new title)
Where have all the paper poppies gone
(commemoration of the fallen since WW1)
have they followed the parade route
behind the March of Dimes
(cardboard folders, punched out pockets
for a dollar's worth of coins)
and those eager children bearing twine
to tie up bundles for the paper drive
(to be stacked by signs e.g. third grade
room 105) and tabled on the sidelines
dispays of Women's Auxiliary bake sale items
(pumpkin bread, Rice Krispy bars)?
