HENDERSONVILLE NC. CIVIL WAR BATTLE!


HENDERSONVILLE NC REVISITED!

Fallen soldiers from both sides
Gallant sacrificing, no longer alive

Most drafted, without any real say
For Political beliefs, just simply pray

Fallen soldiers all served with bravery
Honor and courage their traits that be

Such distant lands, so far away from home
Dangerous battlefields, such combat zones

Taking orders, never questioning why
The chain of command, given on the fly

No real choices offered them just carry out
Simply obey them all, disspell all lingering doubt

War is truly mankinds, most shameful act
No peaceful resolutions, simply just attack

Right or wrong reasons, some times never justified
To the winner goes the spoils, the losers petrified

Fallen soldiers so many in unmarked graves
Supreme sacrifces, with their lives they gave

Will man ever realize, compromise can indeed be had?
By understanding give and take, Oh how very very Sad!

So much truth in this poem.
