    Wisdom 6:  Resplendent and unfading is wisdom, and she is readily perceived by those who love her, and found by those who seek her.

    1 Thessalonians 4:  For if we believe that Jesus died and rose, so too will God, through  Jesus, bring with him those who have fallen asleep.

    Matthew 25:  At midnight, there was a cry, "Behold, the bridegroom!  Come out to meet him!" Then all those virgins got up and trimmed their lamps.

    Rosemary's Blessing:
     

    In Flanders fields the poppies blow
    Between the crosses, row on row,
    That mark our place: and in the sky
    The larks still bravely singing fly
    Scarce heard amid the guns below.

    We are the dead: Short days ago,
    We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
    Loved and were loved: and now we lie
    In Flanders fields!

    Take up our quarrel with the foe!
    To you from falling hands we throw
    The torch, Be yours to bear it high!
    If ye break faith with us who die
    We shall not sleep tho’ poppies blow
    In Flanders Field.

    IN FLANDERS FIELDS  By Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae.  Composed at the battlefront on May 3, 1915 during the second battle of Ypres, Belgium

     

     

     

    The Answer (One of many poems written in response to In Flanders Fields)

    In Flanders Field the cannon boom
    And fitful flashes light the gloom;
    While up above, like Eagles, fly
    The fierce destroyers of the sky;
    With stains the earth wherein you lie
    Is redder than the poppy bloom
    In Flanders Field.

    Sleep on ye brave! The shrieking shell,
    The quaking trench, the startling yell,
    The fury of the battle hell
    Shall wake you not; for all is well.

    Sleep peacefully, for all is well.
    Your flaming torch aloft we bear,
    With burning heart an oath we swear
    To keep the faith to fight it through
    To crush the foe, or sleep with you
    In Flanders Field

    The Answer, by Lt. J. A. Armstrong of Beloit.Wisconsin.

    Sorry Folks. This is late and there are no pictures, but the writer is sick.

     

    Isaiah 40:  Like a shepherd he feeds his flock; in his arms he gathers the lambs, carrying them in his bosom, and leading the ewes with care.

    2 Peter 3:  But according to his promise we await new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.

    Mark 1:  Behold, I am sending my messenger ahead of you; he will prepare your way.  A voice of one crying out in the desert: "Prepare the way of the Lord, make straight his paths."
