Dilinda A. Adams Poet Sonnet

No Glory, No Home, No More--First Shadow Sonnet Challenge

~~~NO GLORY! NO HOME! NO MORE!~~~

Life echoes’ cried, precious loved ones lost life
Door of tears, my prayers knock on the closed door
Strife took up arms that war nailed cross to strife
War erred deeds, claims unjust, cold souls of war

Vain war the warrior’s hallo; warred in vain
Mercy, come again, please give me mercy?
Shame the wars' casualties; hall of shame
Jersey City the same as New Jersey

None gave true love; and glory was for none
Time life wasted; and hope died one last time
Son of perdition spawn without a son
Crime the nations’ debt; and partners of crime

Soar, Oh my soul, chimes of life, let love soar
Poor wars’ and scriptures’ used against the poor
