Message From The Care Home Front
I accept that for some the poppy is unacceptable. (That statement would bear thinking about for a moment or two). I shall not engage with any rants in the comments. Thank you. BTW this is the only poem I entered for a comp this year. (Of course it didn't).

and serious poetry.
I wonder if 'god' should be capitalized? Or if you might insert 'any' before the lower-cased god?
