History
Past – present – future –
The continuum of storms of war –
Crusade wars – sectarian wars –
Wars to end all wars –
Ad infinitum wars
The world’s unborn children
And their unborn children
Ad infinitum unborn children
Will not see
“The light at the end of the tunnel” of war.
The haunting chatter of weapons of war
Sowing flaming red seeds of anger.
The chattering-chattering awaken
Fallen shadows that died a thousand deaths.
Light the fire at the end of the tunnel of war
Let the valiant dead rest in eternal peace.

This poem is a sad comentary on mankind's unending need for battles and war, never finding peace. So true, so sad. Still, I enjoyed reading because at least the writer cares, and makes the reader care, and that gives us hope. Julie
