Rating: 5.0


75 Years D-Day on 5 June 2019....
Due to bad weather General Eisenhower commanded (based upon the advice of the 25-years experienced weatherman in Portsmouth)on 4 June THIS DAY must be delayed by 1 DAY, so D-DAY became 6 June 1944, since they departed in the evening of the 5th June and arrived early in the morning at the 6th of June 1944.

Today we commemorate, WE? YOU ALL, D-Day, because, actually, I don't know anything about it, my husband likes to watch the LIVE TV broadcast, he just loves watching war movies, like all other men around the world and this 75 year memorial celebration of D-Day in Portsmouth
where also Queen Elizabeth II, her son Prince Charles and the PM Theresa May and President Trump are present.

Trump is on a state visit to England and this LIVE TV broadcast shows viewers at home who are in attendance.

If I'm right, the whole world is watching.
I have not experienced the war. As a young woman my mother experienced this Second World War and lived and experienced it very intensely that she came out of it very badly after the war. Bodily very healthy, but mentally a broken to pieces windowpane.

I know this war like no other, through my mother's stories about the war,
since my 5th year I understand her words about the war as no other.
If there is spare time, my Mom starts to tell her WW ll experience.
Very sad for her to experience the war.

My mother's melancholy has never improved,
she told me that she was a spirited woman before my birth,
she has very much pleasure in her work as a dental assistant and
she is very precise with everything and in everything.

After my birth she became a wreck, and as a toddler I am very difficult for her because I quickly snatch away all the objects that I come across and used as toys.

My only brother is 100% the opposite:
calm, thoughtful and too much knowledge for his age group.
He is my babysitter for life.

I am now busy telling the 75 YEARS celebration of D-DAY on Poem Hunter Poem Site, and then I have strayed to my own beloved Mother.
I am grateful to God that she also had a good life thanks to my father.

PORTSMOUTH - England - 75 YEARS D-DAY.
All very impressive.

This is a short report for the entire world of the LIVE broadcast from Portsmouth, the port where President Eisenhower commanded the liberation of occupied Europe.

I was very sad when i read about your mother. I was deprived to see and be with my grandmother on the maternal side because of World War 11. I wrote a poem, entitled; War Is A Vicious Cycle showing the evilness of some people. I hope and. pray that the world will never again experience another World War. A marvelous narrative. So beautifully presented.

However, if we look around us, war is still much continuing. Civil wars are very rampant in other parts of the world and anytime another world war may ignite, God forbids.

War is constantly going on, IF NOT, the weapon industry would be go failliet and the weapon maffia is nor earning money. They are addicted to always earning. Remember the late JFK? He was murdered when he was against the Vietnam war. I hope I haven't said too much, but now you know. That's why I do not like politics. Thank you for your excellent comments.

I liked the way you incorporated the story of your mother, how she was badly affected by the war. So poignant and very touching.. Just like you, we are so lucky that we never experienced any World War.
