i was browsing through poems to find for my mom back home and ran across this one. I am a soldier in the U. S. Army. I fight for this country out here in Iraq. Watched some of my friends get killed right in front of me. Yeah sometimes I wish this war would end but then again I sit back and watch my little boy play and laugh and it reminds me of how much I want him to only have the best. So i do know how it feels but then again you have to remind yourself of why all of this is happening, (for people in the states to remain free. )

I thought your poem was really good, I mean, the words rhymed and made sense. But have you ever wondered why all of these is hapening? I am really trying to find out about my own religion, I believe that there are so many wars because people never bother to ask god for help or advice, we want it our way only and that's not right.

I really enjoyed this poem. Reality is that our world is full of pain and in one way or another people are expressing their feelings. Through poetry is one of the way we can do so. Very well.

i love this poem and i agree that wars should stop its only killing people and destroying the world we should fight for the future generations and make this world a safe place to live in
