War and Heroism

For the contest Sober were the waves, that broke before the shore The sky had turned a solemn gray Like it never had before There, no seagulls walked the sand No cries from birds above All marooned upon that beach Were desperate for Gods love They stood there in a line That seem to never end Where seconds turn to hours And blood and water blend But somewhere on the water With a thousand tiny boats Each man saw salvation It's there they placed their hopes While bombs rained down around them Their end they felt was neigh But God sent them angel To dominate the sky I have read about Dunkirk over the years and the movie was long over due, but awesome !
