And, just for tonight, as the Folk Club is on 11/11, an extra verse inspired by the sight of the Tower of London:

Who's seen the poppies, in seas, at The Tower?
Causing a pause as the people rush by.
Grabbing the crowd with their beauty and power.
Heads drop in prayer, and grown men start to cry.
   Still they're remembered, still they're remembered.
   Still they're remembered with prayers and with tears.
   Though they were gone ere the world saw our fathers,
   Still they're remembered for one hundred years.
