Fire Bird Poet Free verse

World War 3

Dark times once, dark time twice,
And now for a third time,
Air full of planes,
Hearts full of grime,
Marching off to war,
Countries combine,
Countries fight,
No peace treaty to sign,
Death toll rises,
Bombs drop,
No way to escape,
Will it ever stop?

Robert James Liguori October 1, 2024 at 1:56 AM Such dark and dangerous times we are in. Nice poem. You’ve captured the war well. Fire Bird January 12, 2026 at 1:32 AM Hi Robert, I agree with you, in times like these we need to be careful! Sorry for the late reply XD - Phoenix :)

Aly Bahr September 28, 2023 at 2:09 AM I hope you beautiful young people never have to experience 1st hand the horrors of war. Peace be with you. Fire Bird September 28, 2023 at 2:13 AM Hi Aly, thank you, I hope so to, but everyone seems to be arguing these days. - Phoenix :)

Gershon Wolf September 14, 2023 at 6:32 PM I'm not an optimist anymore, I guess. WW3 will stop, though ---- when WW4 breaks out. Oy! Fire Bird September 16, 2023 at 1:06 AM Hi Gershon, thanks for commenting, I'm not an optimist either anymore!! - Phoenix :))
