No Sound Now

Poetry Jam
Graves

Humans Can Do Better


Head over heals
Boots on the ground
Head under the heals 
final breath revealed

Now no sound 

The total given
For freedoms life
Hearts Now in heaven 
What lives on is the strife

Now another round

Why can't we live
With no brothers graves
Can't we just live
All lives to save

Now we need to think

Take life in stride
Politics and religion aside
Safely to abide
All on life's side ??

Now no body's to sink

Save the graves for those who's life ran its course
No graves from force
No tears to shed
No soil bed

For those who love freedom and life and all human race
Find a better gathering place
Kids  and butterflies to chase 
Picnic and music in all park

TRY THIS...
No military memorials needed 
parks are grass seeded
All  lives completed

This kind of picture...deleted!

  4. I agree that we should save graves for those whose lives have run their course. I do think we have to think very carefully before we ever have 'boots on the round' again.

  6. 'No graves from force
    No tears to shed
    No soil bed."
