Another sad tale that shows devastating effect of war on a child.
GOD isn't cruel......say all but that..... anyway, i liked the two poems.........you expressed what all people wanted to express but they couldn't....good work :)
1 and 2 are filled with sensitivity and emotions...they are such heart wrenching writes on the stark side of life...well done
It is good to feel how cruel poetry can be, how great Kafil can be. To forgive faith... No, never. And faith has many names, some of them listed in the poem some of them untold. thank you for writing &sharing
Such a sad another story...you are revealing the small fragments of war...many questions left unanswered and for all that queries time will only answer...justice hand will have it's wave and hit in due time.
you drive the poem well..war is a part of development..wars have many purpose..wars have many causes..pity are those who become the victims..and lucky for those who are untouchable..
To be familiar with such brutality at such a young age Kafil? It makes me realise how lucky I am to be living in a peaceful country. I urge you to make others aware of such horror through your talent.
I thought of the first battle of Bullrun in our Civil War, when all the elite went with picnic baskets to watch the war
what a cruel scene you have described here as if happening before me. who will answer for this.touching poem. voted10 surya
This poem must persuade people and lots of people to be humane!
Again you remind us that not every where in the world is there peace and justice. If we are not aware of the children than what is to become of the so called cilivilised world.
Has she forgiven her rude mother? Has she forgiven her own fate? Has she forgiven the cruel god? Has she forgiven the brutal war? Has she...? may be one day when she sits in isolation and dark, will realise the intent of mother at that time...lovley write and touched my heart and grieved for mother....10 read mine o, mother..mom i miss you...mother and i wept and isolation and dark
wow! you descripe the scenes very well! very sad and much better than my War poem! 10/10!
