War
by Susan Stallings dobson
My emotions reel at the onslaught of terrorism, but War?
Yes! I scream and feel the adrenaline thundering, but
War?
Who dares to wound my country, my trust, but War?
Am I willing to sacrifice my sons and others for
War?
Am I willing to send forth these children I bore to fight
a War?
I hear the cries for revenge and join in their song, but
I look at my three sons and hear the cries of sorrow.
My emotions twist and turn with the changing winds and
I hold my children close, remembering their childhood
scents before I send them off to
War.
