V.E Day

War is over !

V.E Day

Celebration of the highest order
One hell of a day .
So many drunk , But hardly any disorder
In those days , People knew how to behave …

Jubilation ! God save the king !
Lusty patriotic songs did we all sing
The war in Europe was over 
We'd completely forgotten the poor sods
- Still fighting in the far East ….

I really like this poem, it’s simple to the point and reminds us all there is pretty much all ways a war raging somewhere. Thanks.
