Thank you for inviting me to submit my picture to NowPublic.
The red poppies originally commemorated the servicemen who lost their lives in World War1 ;then later included WW2 and more recent wars; symbolising the blood and lives lost on the battlefields.
The white poppies became a symbol of Peace in 1917 to remember ALL people who lost their lives and Hope for the future that there would be no more war.
