WE ARE THE LOST
We are the lost who lived and loved
We felt the dawn saw sunset glow
For now we lie in row on row
In Flanders fields
We felt the dawn saw sunset glow
For now we lie in row on row
In Flanders fields
O lux beata lumina
Lumina
The larks fly high where guns destroyed
Now poppies grow, and crosses show
Where now we lie in Flanders fields
In row on row
Time like an ever-rolling stream
Now poppies grow, and crosses show
Where now we lie in Flanders fields
In row on row
Time like an ever-rolling stream
Bears all its sons away
They fly forgotten as a dream
Dies at the break of day
We shall not sleep who lived and loved
Who felt the dawn saw sunset glow
If you break faith with us who lied
In Flanders fields
O lux beata lumina
Lumina
From failing hands we throw the torch
Our light be yours to hold it high
For now we lie in Flanders fields
In row on row
Time like an ever-rolling stream
Bears all its sons away
They fly forgotten as a dream
Dies at the break of day
O lux beata lumina
Our light be yours

I
despise war, no matter which country it is that wages it, and for whatever
reason. There is no justice in a war, and no justification for it, as it will
always bring only destruction, suffering, loss, death and mourning for so many.
Already one single life lost makes war a lost cause.
Still, I join in in honouring the memory of those who lost their lives in wars
all over the world - soldiers and civilians, men and women, adults, elderly,
and children. And although I have no more words that those I just wrote, I
share something in this blog that ... well, go, see and listen for yourselves.
No More War.
