Alicia, a sobering picture of a war nobody wanted to know about. Everybody wants heroes, but the real heroes are the ones who are left to pick up the pieces. I liked this poem because it reflected the things you will not find in the history books of war. Although I didn't understand the Italian words, the rest of it made up for my lack of languages. It touched me greatly. Thanks for sharing it.
