Stuck In the Muck

Spring is here and temperatures rise
Sludged path—tanks go to their demise 
And with the realization of risk
An army marched so sure and brisk
Nature wins, not a soldier’s surprise

Robert Gorelick Date: 6/3/2022 7:25:00 AM Nature always has the last word, look what happened to Napoleon and Hitler, nature froze their armies. Well written Anaya, Robert Login to Reply I Am Anaya Date: 6/3/2022 8:59:00 AM I am honored, thank you, Robert. The Russians retreated into the interior, deep in winter, leading French troops to a frozen death.

Andrea Dietrich Date: 5/13/2022 8:26:00 PM Sure hope this one goes through. I still can't get a comment to go through on doggy limerick. This was great poem. Ok, let's see if THIS one sticks.

Rico Leffanta Date: 3/10/2022 11:01:00 AM I shall never forget the 101st living in mud four days in Germany because their transport could not take flight until a U-2 could take flight! Imagine all those Ukrainians enduring the snow so they can throw bottles at the Russians! Aloha! Login to Reply I Am Anaya Date: 3/10/2022 12:27:00 PM I watch with pent-up frustration, Rico! May the poets write with fury about the invasion. Aloha!

Gordon Mcconnell Date: 3/9/2022 1:19:00 PM Fine piece Anaya, taking us to look into spring. Nice one! Login to Reply I Am Anaya Date: 3/9/2022 4:04:00 PM Thank you, Gordon, if I may...This one is about how (winter)'s snow slush can help defeat the bad guys when tanks get stuck. I am praying.
