A Found Fragment Comments

A very frightening thought so far from home and in the middle of a war. Can feel the powerlessness of the situation. Yet the power of emotion is very strong, it comes through and hits home. Thank you for sharing. RoseAnn

Short but still powerful. Makes you think don't it? I detest war.

will it be me today? touching... I can't help thinking will it be me today too?

A really good write 10 thumbs up WW1 and all war has taken too many of the young!

My father was bayoneted and shelled on the Somme. He died abroken down drunk tormented by muddy nightmare like you describe here years beore he otherwise might have. His war devastated generations of the family that followed. Great write Jerry thank you --Paddy

Thanks for your comments everyone, Jerry

a very great poem indeed sir, a nice way of reminding that death is true lover 10++ yesterday is gone my turn will soon come

This is a 10, Jerry. I wish every saber rattler had to memorize this one. Ron

In keeping with John Donne. Superior work

This worth a 10. You have nothing to be ashamed of.

Good work. I like how you always make your poems about war. It was a tragic time for the world, and this is a good way to make your feelings about war be known.

May be tomorrow if not today! God never deserts!

Jerry you realized the fragrance of death?
