Wings of War
by Always Lisa

The wings of nations fly
Defy the once a friendly sky
The wings of nations soar
They roar their sounds with wings of war

The drone, it beats to ground
The sound of bombs they rumble, pound
God's name like trusted friend
The end of man to Him defend

The rights of men whose free
To be the likes of you and me
The cost of sons and you
The truly brave that pay our due

It's them and us and here
It's clear it's those oppressed with fear
The wings of nations soar
They roar their sounds with wings of war

(tears fall down my cheeks) So very sad but true, dearest friend, and our politicians here in the U.S wanted to wage war and believed they had found complete victory when they don't even realize the huge war happening here on domestic soil! (sad sigh) This is a powerful debut, sweet friend, there are no excuses to why we can't begin to look for peace, God Bless You! Welcome to Passions, sweet friend, may you be inspired by all of us here as we will all be inspired by your lovely words! I can't wait to read more of your lovely words, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Welcome to Pips.
Peace. It's the only goal worth working for, and it's never ever the end result of war...though it may appear to be, it's temporary, at best.
Glad to have you sign on here at piptalk.

I checked my mail and very cool. Thank you. It's going to take some time to get used to the working of this forum but I like what I see thus far.

I look forward to offering my skills as a writer and critic of the same.

It's never easy being the new kid on the block but I have been made to feel welcome. Thanks to all.

Regards,
Always Lisa
