Opening Page To My New Novel On World War One Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Opening Page To My New Novel On World War One



The rain stopped
the sun was gone

Mercy was in
short supply

Smoke hung over
the battlefield

A bugler in the mud
with his cry

Bodies were being
carted off

New songs were written
to the dead

Just another day in
World War 1

That started and ended
in dread

(Villanova Pennsylvania: November,2014)
