Where have all the flowers gone

Finally my blood began to coagulate As I lay dying on the ground Taunted by their words of hate With their guns still spitting such sharp sounds Now I had met my final fate No more homeward bound My death would be honoured by a date Faded photographs would my memory surround All else forgotten and much too late.

Excellent work Denis finishing 5th out of 31 entries! "The gun still spitting" really stung me, and the rest of the small comportment of solid visual description was impressive!
