the wind blows cold
the leaves are stirred
a dark summer day
where war occured

no smiles are present
the sun went away
heading for home
to live another day

the home is wrecked
the walls were tough
the bombs flew in
brick wasn't enough

searching for food
carrying no luck
hungry for peace
but only had duck

heading for bed
time to shut eyes
tomorrow the same
nothing a suprise

This is an excellent poem and a sad topic
You described it very well!

(big hugggssssss) Oh Jeffrey, this sounds so sad, sweet friend, I hope this doesn't relate to you as I send angel hugs out to you and everyone else who may feel this emptiness every now and then! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Jeffrey, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Jeffrey, this is a very well written poem. It's so sad, though. A lot of truth and emotion in it, too.
