To whom was read "If" aloud <br />Geared up like in childhood plays <br />Computer games with deadly assassins <br />Whom the mother had tenderly raised <br />Freedom to whom a cherished possession <br />Waiting family and children's kiss <br />Hell bound knows his Miss <br />Empire is won who counts the men <br />Lost in flag spots reddened with blood <br />Makeshift homes that shall care the wound <br />Cold wind hot and glazing sun <br />Hit the stones he misses the chance <br />Knows he killed a dozen in cross <br />High tech weapon is on the way <br />Track a mine or watch the enemy <br />Neither winner nor looser <br />He pulls out the picture of his little daughter <br />Home is home what ever says the monger <br /> <br />Islamabad <br />15/2/2010<br /><br />Sadiqullah Khan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-nato-soldier/
