Remembrance Poem

REMEMBRANCE DAY

I’m proud that I am English
So glad that I am free
To do and say just what I like
To really just be me

I’m proud to be defending
Magnificent Mousehold Heath
All life that thrives upon it
As well as whats beneath

It’s a really tiny portion
Of Englands natural beauty
But so worthy of protection
I feel that it’s my duty

For millions went before us
Many fought and made a stand
They died so we could cherish
Our green and pleasant land

So defend our earth
Defend our heath
Then we’ll have something
To bequeath………
