Soldier

Soldier

A Poem by Sophie

The soldiers feet stomp

the sound mixing in with the thousands of others

he is one

out of many brothers


The dog tag shines

showing his honor and bravery

his skin is tanned

but covered in sand, feeling papery


His eyes are cold,

the thoughts behind them unheard

he's worried that war

is ruining humanity's one world.

Love the ending, so powerful and true... I feel it is wise to prepare for war, but foolish to seek it out...how about you?

This is a really meaningful sophie. I really like the idea that war is ruining the world, because honestly, I think it is. The soldiers thoughts, I wonder if that is what every soldier is thinking.... Overall, good poem sophie! :)
