“To
Victory!” cries the general as
his men storm across the flat plain,
for he knows the lay of the land
and the treasures they will gain,
their boots grind along the path
the fire in their hearts burn bright,
in a straight line they march, when
soon in the sky they see the light.
his men storm across the flat plain,
for he knows the lay of the land
and the treasures they will gain,
their boots grind along the path
the fire in their hearts burn bright,
in a straight line they march, when
soon in the sky they see the light.
Town’s on fire, houses burn
long
winds gain speed in a March storm,
the men lay flat in despair, light
clothes will not keep them warm,
straight ahead they stare and grind
their teeth, no victory to be won,
the general stands, alone he cries
it’s plain to see, a wily deed done.

Another moving and hard hitting poem Jacinta. Fine penmanship and through the images, you convey all that needs to be said. Nishu Mathur
