A Cloud In the Sky

*this poem was a writing exercise in english class-we were given an object and told to write about it-mine was a wooden carving of a sad looking, hunched over man...this is what i got from it...*


The war long over
My grandfather's war is not
Everyday he hides his head
Behind a cloud of shame
Guilty
Guilty for surviving
Guilt
Guilt and sorrow

o*~Everyone makes mistakes-get over them and make more tomorrow!~*o
