Is it too much to ask …

War is not healthy poster, originally done by Lorraine Schneider in 1966.

Is it too much to ask
that you take a moment
to consider the past
to consider a part of history
when men and women gave their lives
to defend us from tyrants
giving all they had
all that they were
that we may be free …

Is it too much to ask
to take a moment
to reflect on these veterans
who asked for so little
who deserve so much

Is it too much to ask
to take a moment
to show that you remember
their sacrifice
their bravery
their valour

Is it too much to ask?
