What is the meaning of war? <br />Pointless if you ask me. <br />Young men so strong. <br />Full of future feeling free <br />Doomed to die under a foreign sky <br />Bullets fly bombs explode <br />The earth shakes. The earth groans <br />Mothers cry as they receive the flag. <br />Then they know there child is truly dead <br />War is pointless if you ask me. <br />All it does is kill young men and women in the name of democracy. <br />As children cry for fathers not seen. <br />As Wives sob for lovers now gone. <br />War is pointless don't you see. <br />That is only if you ask me.<br /><br />Troy Nichols<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/war-is-pointless/
