Editor: One hundred years since…
King vs. Kaiser
Cousin vs. Cousin
We wished they would have been wiser
One hundred years since …
Empire vs. Empire
Kingdom vs. Kingdom
With consequences dire
One hundred years since …
Man vs. Man
Army vs. Army
It was never God’s plan
One hundred years since …
Nation vs. Nation
Bayonet vs. Gunner
Children lose their station
One hundred years since …
Son vs. Son
Father vs. Father
I wonder which side won
One hundred years since …
The Great War announced
Bodies splayed in trenches
Humanity denounced
We remember — the First World War, August, 1914 to November, 1918.
