Almost as long as there has been life, war has been a part of it. Mankind continues to wage war even though the consequences often breed nothing but misery. However, when a person is called to defend his or her country, or protect other defenseless people, it is his duty to fight. There is no question that there is evil in the world and we must not rest on our laurels and say it is none of our business. We cannot stand by and watch while others are being persecuted. It is the duty of mankind to uphold justice.
When you wake up in the morning or stay up nights on end,
Know that your sister is here till the very end.
When you gather your equipment and grasp your gun,
Know that you're loved, brother, uncle, son.
Hey I think your poem is amazing although quite sad. I hope he comes back soon and wish your family happiness.

He says he's leaving.
He'll be gone about a year.
He's headed off to fight the war,
And his time is drawing near.
True love is like a flower. Its beauty will glow and your feeling will flow, but love is also like the seasons. It can come and go, but there is one thing that I know and I intend to show. I...
To you, I may be very small
Or think I don't know much at all.
I've learned to grow up rather fast
With so much future and not much past.
Such a touching poem. I love it so much, because of it, I am now doing it to present to my class. ??

Although he could not say with words
The love he felt inside,
He treasured every moment
And his heart would fill with pride.
I cried!! Many families find it hard to say those most important 3 little words.
When I first came into this world,
You could not be there.
But Mommy promised every night
That you would always care.
My dad was killed weeks before I came into the world and only days before the horrible war ended, so he never knew the child he was expecting was a girl. I would give everything to give him...
Amidst the desert sands dawnings just begun,
battle rages on, bombing veils the rising sun.
A boy not yet a man holds a picture to his heart
of loved ones not forgotten though oceans keep them apart.
War has never been a better way to resolve conflicts but peace. For while war leave people displaced, maimed and killed, peace sure does the reverse. This poem is so touching. I love it.

You've been there for me
Through it all.
You're always there to catch me
When I start to take a fall.
I know how you feel, I do share the same thing but they're are still my brothers regardless of what they do. I'll still love them no matter what.
I will wish you and your brother good luck...
He stands tall
He stands proud
In a foreign country
Among a foreign crowd
Best poem I've read since I've been on the group. You are very close to my style and War is something I've been close enough to write about. Really moving poem you have written here and clear...
There's more to the story,
than what just appears.
A war written story,
from blood and from tears.
Definitely it has touched my heart. Not mine, but on each reader's minds, this poem has created a very emotional ache. It is about freedom, fight, love and pain. And this poem describes...
There's a little boy standing by the fence with a flag in his hand.
He's sad and confused; he doesn't understand.
He watches his daddy turn and head up on the bus.
He watches him go and doesn't even fuss.
This poem was beautifully delivered. Every word you wrote created a picture in my head. Well done.
