Surveys the horror all around
His home destroyed, his family gone
A small sweet child left all alone

The massacre was short and swift
Then off they went, with nothing left
Nothing but this sweet small thing
All alone with just his sling

He slowly stands and wipes his tears
Grows so much older than his years
Oh yes, you soldiers you will pay
For I will be a man one day

I will learn to fight with sword
And with the help of knight and lord
I will search and they will die
Revenge will be my battle cry [comments] => 6 [counter] => 161 [topic] => 40 [informant] => gwenevere [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => fantasy )
The Small Boy

Surveys the horror all around
His home destroyed, his family gone
A small sweet child left all alone

The massacre was short and swift
Then off they went, with nothing left
Nothing but this sweet small thing
All alone with just his sling

He slowly stands and wipes his tears
Grows so much older than his years
Oh yes, you soldiers you will pay
For I will be a man one day

I will learn to fight with sword
And with the help of knight and lord
I will search and they will die
Revenge will be my battle cry

Great write. It is pretty sad, but the others make up for it, and this is a great poem even when sad...
