11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month

Today is Remembrance Day, a day bound up with the Royal British Legion and the Poppy Appeal.

I don't want to wear a red poppy: the British Legion supports servicemen and not the civilians who gave their lives in munitions factories, shipyards, coal mines and their own homes and I want to remember them too.

The White Poppy seems to be a better alternative or just quiet inner reflection.
