    Soldiers In A Row

    Soldiers dieing all in a row

    Slowly waiting till they

    Get to stand at attention

    For that killing blow.

     

    Friends, fathers, sons, daughters

    Every kind of loved one

    Standing diligently

    Protecting you, your

    Children and your homes.

     

    They shall die

    And we shall mourn

    For the families

    Of the soldiers

    Waiting ever so patiently

    In a row

    Waiting for their very own

    … killing blow.

    sad but true, waiting to die, that couldn't be me, I'm not that brave especially with the thought of dying on my mind. but War is not a game eventhough everyone may assume it is. You can actually die in it, yes we honor them but that's their life lost, over something that could have been talk out.

    A very powerful piece. Really demonstrates the ultimate effect of war... death. I wish everyone spent more time realizing the sacrifice made by these men and women to keep us free.

    Poetry comes nearer to vital truth than history.
