Rest From War

PoeFan3369

There is that time

‘tween Light and Dark

When Quiet reigns as King.

When the Moon has fled

When the Sun still hides

Nature sleeps, and dreams to sing.

And in this time

‘tween Day and Night

When Silence reigns supreme

A great War is ceased

The great Warriors rest

Become friends, or so it seems.

    WELCOME PF ~ WW1 (1914 - 18) spawned a lot of excellent War Poets. Your poem focuses on the end 11.11. 1918 when hypothetically The UK and Germany became reconciled. But Hitler & Others were not satisfied with th nature of the agreement and on 3 September 1939 it started all over again (WW2) and over 20 M perished. The Common Market has prevented WW3 but now the UK had left ! Wars start and Wars cease but many Men prefer War to Peace ! Thanks for sharing your challenging poem ~ BRIAN
