#memorialday image: Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, Round Top, July 1863. By Timothy H. O'Sullivan. Text: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. editing/mashup/sookietex More about this image and story at Public Domain Clip Art - http://publicdomainclip-art.blogspot.com/2015/05/memorial-day-poem-clip-art.html

Decoration Day: Sleep, comrades, sleep and rest On this Field of the Grounded Arms,
Where foes no more molest, Nor sentry's shot alarms!
Ye have slept on the ground before, And started to your feet
At the cannon's sudden roar, Or the drum's redoubling beat.

But in this camp of Death No sound your slumber breaks;
Here is no fevered breath, No wound that bleeds and aches.
All is repose and peace, Untrampled lies the sod;
The shouts of battle cease, It is the Truce of God!

Rest, comrades, rest and sleep! The thoughts of men shall be
As sentinels to keep Your rest from danger free.
Your silent tents of green We deck with fragrant flowers
Yours has the suffering been, The memory shall be ours.

-- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

The first chapter of In Flanders Fields and Other Poems, a 1919 collection of McCrae's works, gives the text of the poem as follows:

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 failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
