  • who ever disliked this are black hearted people

  • Beautiful poems, I have one question for you Peter, did you ever serve as a soldier durring WW2, if you were old enough back then, or during Korea?

  • Great video.

  • Thank you, Peter. As always, you made my day. :-)

  • i love it . ;-)

  • Wonderfull :)

    I like this lovely video :)

  • UNC UNC UNC UNC, gimme some beats.

  • The right music accompanied the reading.

  • This is so lovely.

  • I was so impressed by the second poem that I doubted that it had been written by a 12 year old girl. I did some research and discovered that it was not written by a 12 year old!

    The second poem was written by a girl called Jodie Johnson on May 19th, 1996, when she was aged not 12 but 11 years, which makes it an even more impressive work.

  • Touching video Peter, thank you

  • Thank you for reading those precious poems. Mary

  • Thankyou

  • Thank you so much for giving to us all.  I miss so much in the 1970's a cousin who witnessed all the horror of WWII and shared it with me. He was a true hero. He and his wife are gone now many years but I will never forget.

  • Let us not forget those who are still fight and die for this country.....

  • beautiful,

    makes me teary eyed

  • I went on a school history trip a few weeks ago, to various battlefields and memorials throughout France and Belgium. Although I had read and seen photos - nothing compares to actually going there. It makes you realise just what happened.

  • Brilliant :)

    Well done Peter :D

  • I live in Flanders and will always remember them, the men that saved us (twice) during WWI and WWII.

    I particularly like In Flanders Fields. I read a lot of WWI poetry at university. Thanks for passing it on to the younger generations!

  • Flanders and many other places probably wouldn't have looked and been the same if it wasn't for those brave men. I got watery eyes when you read that poem.

    Greetings from Flanders Peter.

  • Well done, indeed. We must never forget the sacrifices of those who have gone before. Thank you, Peter.

    By the way, I could listen to you read poetry or from books all day long. :)

    I am attaching a video response to this, as the music and images fit here. However please ignore the ending because at this time, the levity is inappropriate.

    Feel free to remove it if you want.
