Purple Poppy Poem by Paul Warren

Purple Poppy



They were always man's best friend
And love you unconditionally until the end
When we went to war in both World Wars
Dogs went with us to help and more

They were ambulance dogs Red Cross dogs or victim dogs
For filling the paramedic roll especially in the WW1 slog
Up to 20000 dogs served in this way
Trained to go into No Mans Land so bravely and stay

So when you think of heroes in these wars
Buy a purple poppy as their remembrance score
Remember them in the heat of battle fears
Being aid to the wounded and comfort to dying soldiers there.
