The War Rage

The War Rage

A Poem by Devansh Shekhar Shukla
"

I am really sad at what is happening in Ukraine. I strongly oppose war. It leaves behind it, loss and destruction only... I hope for peace.

"
Sometimes, I can't understand,
What do they mean by refusing to shake hands.

All the time, they want to fight,
They really don't care, is it right?

Working hard on armies and weapons,
Aren't treaties better than those tanks and guns?

Why don't they think like me and people like me?
They don't see the dreadful future but I can see.

One day, in this competition of 'skilled warriors',
The world will sink in an ocean of tears.

"Why don't they think like me and people like me?
They don't see the dreadful future but I can see."
Devansh, all they see is minerals, oil and resources. The poor people suffer for the greed of the powerful countries. This is a sad time my friend. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry and your thoughts.

I wish they had a mindset like you. But people these days are very skilled at backstabbing. No one's easily trusted. The race to be the supreme power of world, to establish their position has gone far from the point it was started for.
I hope these words reach someone from a background who can at least try to think twice about it.

Since I am reviewing this poem after 2023, I shall say this: it reflects the current situation of today's world.

Very well written. The situation between Ukraine and Russia is really disturbing and war is never a solution.

I agree with you. The war makes no sense.

An appropriate offering here for this time we are going through. Those in the position to make wars, especially dictators, do not think like the rest of us. As has often been quoted, absolute power corrupts absolutely.
