I Shall Wait. (A major edit)

I Shall Wait

Oh my beloved,
As you go off to war,
I shall wait your return
In one piece

I shall be a single teen aged mother
Till you return,
Hopefully, your return
Is not with mournful trumpet call
Or Colours dipped on cobbles bare
As normally many do

Till then I shall await my Love,
For you,
As a widow
At this young age
I wouldn’t do

Comments

a nice tribute to the soldiers who lay their lives during their heroics..
