At this sad time, as we approach Remembrance Day, there is a new fire burning in the world. This poem is about the terrible turmoil that is boiling up currently. It is my wish for peace and stability as soon as can be arranged.
Time to remember
The wars gone by.
To buy a poppy
Ask ‘Why did they all die?’
Time for reflection,
About the world we are in.
That we can stay caring,
So no wars can begin.
But sadly, as we’re hoping
Something tragic has unfurled.
An anger that is tearing
At the middle of our world.
Discomfort and despair
have reared their ugly heads
With people from two places
Removed from their beds.
While I wish
Our nations’ politicians
Would call for peace
And not supply munitions….
I can see
A growing trouble
We need to stop this
On the double.
Final Thoughts
I am a strong believer in dealing with things by talking about them. My poem reflects my wish for peace in the world. Thank you for reading my Terrible Turmoil poem. I would appreciate your thoughts.
