| Nuclear War | |

This won a poetry competition several years ago on the theme of war. The earth rumbles like a dragon in a cave, Missiles and nuclear warheads sending people to the grave, A blinding flash causes screaming, All the while people dreaming, Of the life before devastation, All made by a human beings creation The fireball is coming, Everyone starts running, All around the dead and the dying, Lost and lonely children crying, Charred, blackened and scared, People began to wander if they dared, Calling for their loved ones, The ones they would miss, The black rain fell with radiation, Causing more havoc and panic upon the poisonous desolation, ‘What will become of me and you?’ ‘Will we all get sick and die too?’ These were the questions the living ones asked. Only time would tell the fate of a nuclear bombs survivors, But now there are none alive to tell us.
