Trudy Schrader Poet Haiku

Trying Haiku

Soldiers pray to God
For the choices they must make
To kill a child bomb



Evil has a face
Laughing as it destroys friends
Who believed in LOVE

Trudy Schrader January 28, 2011 at 9:00 AM Dang it! I will learn, thanks for the heads up. I suppose war is unnatural as you can get.

Robert Pettit January 28, 2011 at 8:44 AM Good writing, but this work is more of a senryu. Haiku poems deal with things in nature.
