Margaret's Sons Poem by Tom Allport

Margaret's Sons

Rating: 5.0


The community responded
To Mr's Smith loss
Five sons gone
What a terrible cost
For a war that's not
Great nor without end
But thank god
She had a religious friend
Who wrote to the Queen
Telling her story
Of her now only son
Fighting for the King's glory.

In war losing five sons is very painful really. Religious friend has helped a lot. Only son is now fighting for king's glory. A brilliant perceptional poem is excellently presented. In stead of war all of us need peace and love...10
