For those who gave their lives - a photo on Flickriver

            Forgotten wreaths, a faded poppy red,
A silent tribute to the bravely dead.
November's chill, a solemn, mournful sigh,
For those who gave their lives, that we might fly.


I have had this shot kicking around for more than a month trying to decide whether to post it or not. The spot of colour seemed to fit the solemn nature of remembrance day but makes it difficult to post on "Black and white" groups. 

Life is too short to worry about trivialities - so here it is.
