Where have all the flowers gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the flowers gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the flowers gone?
Girls have picked them every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?
Where have all the young girls gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the young girls gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the young girls gone?
Taken husbands every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?
Where have all the young men gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the young men gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the young men gone?
Gone for soldiers every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?
Where have all the soldiers gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the soldiers gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the soldiers gone?
Gone to graveyards every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?
Where have all the graveyards gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the graveyards gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the graveyards gone?
Covered with flowers every one
When will we ever learn?
When will we ever learn?

Beautiful pictures and a song that brought back so many memories. I always enjoy your posts.
I'm going to be humming that now.....
The notecards look fabulous!
Woa...reading those words and hearing the tune in my head gave me a big 60's flash back.
Feeling a little melancholy tonight?
Love the pictures - and your poem. Have always loved the song, too. Thanks for sharing!
Lovely, lovely photos. I think I am beginning to get tired of all the "naked" trees myself even though I love the view of them against the sky.
