FEW LESSONS ARE LEARNT FROM THE PAIN OF WAR.
NATION'S LEADER,EGO'S WITH NO FEAR, TREND TO WAR
WITHOUT A THOUGHT OF THOSE THAT FIGHT THE WAR.
WHO YEARN FOR SAFETY, PEACE, NOT A BLOODY WAR.

PLEASE FIND HEARTFELT WORDS OF MY TALENTED FRIEND
MADDY HAYWARD
Beneath the hoisted Aussie flag,
The soldier boy lays to wait,
In a trench of strewn bodies,
Arm around his mate.
Together they must face their fate,
And from the trenches rise,
To a hail of whistling bullets,
There is a fear in their eyes.
They pause to say one final prayer,
And ask for god to care,
For the loved ones, they have left behind,
In their homeland, far from there.
They ask that he look after them,
And give them strength to cope,
Should they get the dreaded news,
That destroys a mothers hope.
They ask god to end this war,
And the dreaded loss of life,
That tears family’s heart apart,
And, makes a widow of a wife.
They ask for not their mercy,
They know their fate is sealed,
Instead, they ask for lasting peace,
And their nation’s loss to be healed.
Lest we forget 🇦🇺❤️
