∙ 13y agoThe story of Flander's Fields is simple. At the end of the war in Canada the buried all most all the dead soldiers in Flander's Field's. After a while people noticed something. The decomposing bodies acted as a fertilizer to the soil, and eventually gave enough nutrients to the soil and created a poppy. Which in the end began to grow throughout the whole entire field and covered it in Red poppies. That is how Flande's Fields was written, and that's why we were poppies on remembrance day.
