Short poetry about war.

Short poetry about war.

A Poem by Coyote Poetry
"

I'm tire of war and violence.

"
                            



              What is left?

The dead will not rise.
War steal the best from us.
Who remember the people in the mass graves?





            



                         Children cry, Soldier die

Old friend you were killed in Iraq.
So far from the safety of your home.
I cried with your children and parent.
You are not forgotten.
A father's love is never forgotten.




                          White crosses

How many fields of white crosses are needed.
Soldiers will die and great cities will fall.
War leave no victors.
Only homeless and desperate people paying for the cost of war.

Author's Note

Coyote Poetry
The great leaders are yelling revenge. Don't send guns. Send water, food and medicine. Lockup the leaders in a room like the day of the unions. Can't come out till the chaos of hate is broken.

It is beyond my comprehension why mankind ever thought war was a good idea. We are supposed to be reasoning creatures with the innate ability to make choices. We are not supposed to be driven by instinct, yet we chose to have wars. There should be a better way to settle our differences. Yet if we found one, the problem is the maniacal figures in history who only understand force. How do you stop them without war? Unfortunately a paradox.

Terrific poem! I am so sorry to hear of your loss of a friend and loving father, too many die for no good reason!

Touching and wonderful for you to write of the lost. A sad reminder of things that most likely get worse before it gets better. I was a soldier and I can tell you first hand, like you said there so many tragic stories. It is a sad thing that has happened since the beginning of time and will only end when time ends.

Perhaps with every drop of ink spilled in the name of love one less drop of blood for war. Thank you, Coyote.

You have said this very well. What are we fight for or against anyway? Does anyone really know that answer to that these days. In WWII we knew why we were fighting, Revolutionary war we knew the cause, and the Civil war we had great reason for fighting but now do we really have a reason? Thank you for your wise words.

I completely agree with you.
The truth is hard to take isnt it. Honor is hard to hold onto at the cost of so many friends. I am sorry for your losses I know from first hand experience what it feels like to miss them An excellant poem Coyote


In a moment the lonely sound
fell heavy on every mans ear
As the truth echoed from the ground
even the boldest shook to hear

For then the songs all ceased to play
we looked to sky and then to friend
They felt there nothing left to say
for woe had summoned this the end
100/100 You speak from experience hard earned and respected .Your friends would smile down on you .Im sure they would all say they are glad you survived

Thank you Tate. They are the reason I write logical in the time of chaos.
It certainly sounds like a good plan to me!! Let the great leaders why out just how powerless they really are if the people would take control of these horrific circumstances of war, and poverty! We must end the hate!!
Excellent poem my friend! Please keep getting the message out about the horror of the war machine!

Coyote -

War is inevitable...

...freedom as we know is protected by the will of those that raise their right hand and volunteer...to wear the uniform and defend the country for whatever purpose is deem right or not at times...they are not forced by any means like a draft...I do understand your belief to end the bloodshed...but under the circumstances that's not going to happen...no nations is going to give up their weapons-armies and all of a sudden have this utopia of a world...its called insurance...just the way of the beast inside us as human beings to want...and not need...with power...there is greed...just falls hand in hand...and I continue...

We view things differently because of the walls that give us the right to be free...in essence are we truly free...without that security...why do we lock our doors at night...if that is the case...even in our safe haven of a country representing the entire world of freedom...and have guns in our homes...and video cameras all over the place...if we are truly free from war...we will collapse from within our own boarders...again...

War is inevitable...

Nice work Coyote. War is a necessity in humanity. Revolutions are not fought by never firing a round. Liberation for many around the globe came from fighting. War(conflict) is as much apart of man as our heart. War(conflict) is never pretty and it's not intended to be. Our world around us both visible and in the unseen world is in constant war(conflict). Our bodies is in constant battle. Our soul. Remember the Phoenix. Beauty will rise again from the ashes. War is never pretty. War is hell.

Really inspiring! War has no meaning, it is just a clash of ego between a few persons resulting in mass destruction. Really amazing. Kudos!
