ANZAC Day


Where it was heled


Paying respects


Army


Crowed




We will remember them,
People paying tribute,
Men marching,
A mass of people, gathered together, standing unified,
Prayers and hymns delivered,
Rounds of applause,
Singing our national anthem,
A united country,
Reflecting on a nation,
A mark of respect,
Proud to be a kiwi,
