silence

dusk arising

It is 11am in UK
11th hour
11th day
11th month
the time at which
hostilities ended
in WW1 'The Great War'

 

Let us take
one minutes respectful silence
in memory of those
who lost their lives
and those who suffered
in all armed conflicts

 

mankinds ultimate sin

    Oh DA someone remembers the lives that have been lost but what to do mankind never learns. A nice tribute

  • Fay Slimm.

    This special remembrance as your verse reveals must never be forgotten dear Dusk - those who went down then would abhor the times since when war has take so many more. Thank you for this
    timely reminder of a moment's silence and all it means.
