dream of no war

dream of no war

A Poem by Jazmyne

This is for the child,

who dreamed of being someone.
Her dream of becoming a hero -
she'd get it in the long run.

For the young woman who made it,
it's always been her destiny.
She'd dream of fighting for this country,
to live a life, happy and free.

For the soldier who fought loyally,
though remorsefully taking lives.
Her childish dreams vanished,
crumbled right before hes eyes.

For the girl who barely slept,
clinging the rifle faithfully.
But tonight she only dreamed,
of her once happy family.

This is for the fallen soldier,
who cried on the cold, hard floor.
Tonight she was a child again,
and she dreamed there was no war.

I'm in agreement with everyone else. Wonderful tribute and poetically, this had great rhythm.

Deeply moving... a nice tribute to those who selflessly give themselves to protect our freedoms... I am nearly speechless... your poem is a sweet blessing for them.
