Poem -
Angels of war vs Animals of hate
See the child
Watch him wander
No time to look
No time to ponder
Firelit sky
Fire across ground
Tears in his eyes
As they fire a round
Little body down
On the dirty dusty path
Of a land at war
As life they grasp
No pitter patter of tiny feet
As death becomes them in the war torn street
A bullet for the child
With tears in his eyes
How many? how many ?
Of these angels will die ?
Guns and war
War and guns
Someone's daughter
Someone's son
Angels of the beast's trigger
As one by one ...they go down
Crying for those close to them
On that war-torn bloody ground...

 War is hell on Earth. There are too many willing to commit to bloodshed before debate and a bargained solution to differences. Hate all the horror on our screens.
Great write.
so true Richard ,not enough talking and we see that all around us with bloodshed .Thanks for your comment my friend <3
Thank you for writing ! :) x
Powerful write Tina, sad and thought provoking, love your rhyming technique...horror of war, is the death of the innocent, such a relevant subject   terrific Â
Thanks Chris <3 the insanity as Richard said on tv can't not move us to write and feel for the little innocents caught up in all this <3
Dear Miss Moore!!.........this is a most generous and caring piece..........to make an effort on behalf of those incapable of defending or having a voice of their own...........you have shed light on subject matter that deserves it 24/7............and with poetic precision........so as to have your reader compelled to be moved to understanding.............a most wonderful and caring piece...........sad and horrible though the issue is...........Thank you for speaking your heart my friend............well done............T xo
Many thanks Tony ,i'm glad you appreciate the seriousness of this .....my heart never stops for the child and other innocents caught up in a nasty war....our voices have to be heard and hopefully some will take notice and change their views on agreeing with war or guns .....thank you my friend for your valuable comment <3
Honorable Poetess Tina Moore,
Highly powerful write on child killing, And the effects of war death and injury linger. When families lose members to death or injury, not only is the human suffering immense, but there is also often loss of the innocent infants and household’s only breadwinner's,
Thanks for sharing this verse, welcome back to COSMOFUNNEL, You are an amazing and strong Poetess, Good luck, I like the below lines
