This is a short but heartfelt ode to the fallen soldier. We need to remember what they did for us and thank them more often than we do.
Congratulations on the win.

Comment from LateBloomer
Hello Idamarty, In five lines, your poem speaks volumes. Your poem is heartfelt and beautifully penned. I especially liked:
Brave are those who fought the war
Cherished hearts that beat no more
Death became our saving grace
(The essence of this poem)
Ida, an excellent ABC poem. When writing ABC poems, like Acrostics, it can be difficult to have each line flow with ease. Your poem flows in a most silky way - very good.
Wonderful artwork choice. A poem of gratitude. As this is a contest entry, I wish you good luck.
Keep the blue waters flowing.

Comment from Pyrrho
The description of war dead always goes against my grain. I find nothing grand or heroic about it, just deep sadness that it occurs every day and has every day for millennium after millennium.

I know what you mean. It has been going on forever and will probably do so until we finally destroy this earth. Thank you for reading and reviewing. Blessings.
