JULY FIRST 1916
2781 said:
I read that the soldiers on that first day were volunteers and worked in \"Pals Battalions\"- units made up of family and friends,
Devastating not only families, but whole communities.
God help us, war is brutal, to say the least.

Quite a tribute to this battle, the men that died there, gritty and real about a real event now mostly forgotten. Well done Norman

Such a beautiful poem, the breeze carrying someone’s presence is quietly powerful.

Most nostalgic of a time that was more innocent, brighter that time has taken away. Nicely written it conveys this well in good rhyme

Very nice. I especially like
The silent moon
Its prying eye
Its rounded face
That creeps into
The sleeping place.

Good write N. Doh! Sometimes this site leaves your poem as 3 verses, and sometimes it jumps and puts it all as one verse. Spooky! lol.

MAN WITHOUT TIME

Here we are left in darkness and shadow with a figure that somehow has lost something of great value and stands paralyzed. What is the loss we are only to imagine and what is the outcome again it is left up to the reader to decide. Nicely crafted
