[bodytext] => The coffee cup full, The foam settling on the top, The aromatic steam slowly drifting upwards, The mornings come, A plain bagel sits unattended, A news paper left unopened, A cat still meowing for its meal, A day alone comes again, With thoughts only of you, Wondering what war you really are fighting, With the night falling over-seas, Wondering where you are now, I hope you’re not cold, I hope you’re not alone, I hope you’re not hungry, I hope you come back home, War ripping us apart, War keeping you so far away, War keeping me from talking to you, War still can’t stop me from feeling you, War can’t destroy everything, How hard it must be for you, How long and treacherous, How strong you must be, How courageous and unselfish you are, How come war must be? So I leave my breakfast to itself, So I forget the paper and the cat, So I pray for you and your brothers, So I cry for the people you may die for, So I wait only for your footsteps at the door. War can’t kill everything. And the coffee cup stays full [comments] => 3 [counter] => 271 [topic] => 57 [informant] => alison [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => war )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
