Disposable People.
Accidental Poet said:

So sad that modern man hasn\'t learned the lesson of wars past. That power of man is more important and valuable then love of man. So very well penned Andy.

Coyote said:

It sure does seem that life has become a cheap commodity in our modern world and this fine piece describes the moment perfectly.

Very true GF. But still people join armies

Disposable People.
Doggerel Dave said:

Serried ranks of white crosses in France tell much of the WW1 story, Andy. That those dead were ever \'glorious\' is of course absolute codswallop.
But also there is no better way of sorting internal problems within a Nation State than finding an enemy without……

Disposable People.
L. B. Mek said:

wonderfully different, Andy
and ever so timely, poignant...
the word Diaspora: will soon be extinct
if mother nature can\'t be pacified
and who, pray tell - caused Nature\'s fury
to become exasperated so quickly;
we\'re less than a quarter of a millennium
since the industrial era began
or less than half a millennium, since
the Spanish started messing
with the Incas mines, and polluted
the Andes
with their profiteering, lead dust..
how quickly
our failing\'s: undermine, all our great achievements

Disposable People.
dusk arising said:

Yes, cannon fodder as they say. It seems one cannot defend against the evil oppressor without sending out cannon fodder. Old blood and guts Churchill, voted the greatest of Britains by a large margin at the turn of the century, was guilty of having disposables to sacrifice.
War is disgusting and only ever results in bringing forth empty never again promises of learned wisdom, only to be cast aside by the next generation.

Very provokative writing from you today sir.

Quijote said:

and many sent out to stop evil from a minority gaining that power I guess and until human nature evolves as much as science it will sadly ever be the same.

Life With Nature.
Jerry Reynolds said:

A fine write, Andy.
I find it amazing how some days, over distance and time, we all pick similar themes.

Natures golden reward, autumn, a reminder that seasons of life are perpetual. A beautifully painted poem.

Life With Nature.
Lorna said:

Dear Andy I for one am with you on loving Nature and Autumn - I\'m glad the harshest light is gone - it picks up every imperfection - and now the evening makes home look like a shimmering stage setting! Just by the by every time I hear this piece of music I jump and say \"Swan Lake\"! (I love Tchaikovsky having danced for years when I was very young) but indeed it is not and never has been old T - will I ever get it through my head - at least it\'s about Swans!

Life With Nature.
L. B. Mek said:

fleeting, our \'long summers\'
aren\'t they? dear poet
but like all-things
gone, in a blink
we do cherish them more
for their: elusivity..
thanks for sharing, Andy
