Fighting

by robina1978

CLISH-clash, CLISH-clash, battling knights
Blades are clashing throughout fights
Bloody traces all on soil
Messy fighting this was then

Cannons now, more deadly
Sounding Plop-plop, Plop-plop
Killing many all at once
Cruel this was, still is

Wars with chemicals did come
Not nice , not nice at all
They maimed, killed - not fast
Slowly, deadly and nasty

Atom-bombs were next in line
Don't make sounds though
Bombs destroy more YOU know?
Deadly cruel, never ending
After effects so long, lengthy

Cruel wars never ending?
STOP them NOW, for e'er and always

PEACE for ALL
