This beautifully embroidered poem is part of the Remembrance Day display at a church on Hayling Island, Hampshire. Unfortunately, I have no idea who embroidered it, but I think whoever it was wouldn't mind me posting it here!

The fourth verse is particularly poignant and is used in most UK Remembrance Day services.

Frans Schols, Diane Putnam, ColRam, Annemarie and 3 other people have particularly liked this photo
