Streets? A Soldiers Battlefield..

These warm summer days,
filled with laughter and childish ways.

Life as we know it is sweet,
with the play of children at our feet.

As the day goes and night nears,
we are forced again to put on our fears.

Streets where children once were found,
are now but an evening battleground.

Into houses stray bullets fly,
where families cry and watch loved ones die.

As day approaches and night ends,
the streets are filled again with one less friend.

thanks! This is the first piece of poetry I have put up for review so as my first reviewer I'd like to say I'm grateful that you were no near as harsh as I was expecting haha, for me this poem reflects and touches upon many situations many face on a daily basis, for example..war torn streets right through to those streets where drive by's are a daily occurance.. x
