Notes About The Poem

Artwork by Suzanne VanBebber

Photo Bomb

The ravages of war take their toll
Soldiers left out stranded on the field
Letters to loved ones half written
Much to read between the lines
Love affairs never to be resumed
Dreams aborted at the cost of peace

Gershon Wolf November 16, 2025 at 8:12 PM Once again, a perfect title for the poem you've penned. No winners in war, are there? Line Gauthier November 16, 2025 at 8:37 PM You got that right, Gershon ~ thanks
