Nuclear Bomb Dropping On Hiroshima Poem by Gert Strydom

Nuclear Bomb Dropping On Hiroshima



When the Enola Gay on command
dropped her deadly bomb
unleashing moments of hell in Hiroshima
and a nuclear blast went off in destruction

the co-pilot was thinking:
“God, what did we do? ”
maybe through his life
could not reconcile himself with this deed,

the innocent women and children
was caught in moments of destruction
and blinded
while the massive power of the weapon was circling out

and all of mankind was hit by this tragedy
but Harry S Truman did not even realize his share in this misdeed.
