The Purple Poppy
I'm not sure that you knew;
That there is a purple poppy too;
It's one you wear beside the red;
For the animals who's blood was shed;
Many animals and birds gave their all;
Here is just a few that I can recall;
Cats in trenches kept rats down;
Dogs warned if strangers were around;
Pigeons carried messages to and fro;
Horses died with soldiers we all know;
And so the purple poppy that some now wear;
Is to remember the help they all gave there;
I decided to write this poem for you;
That we remember all them too.
