“the Soldiers Call” Poem by Rabo Sanusi

With courage we triumph
Both vying for the course of victory
But how do you feel
Knowing your life is at the mercy of the enemy…
The battle field is thy playground
As each breath conceived seems the last
The bloodbath cleanses the field
Bullets now the toys of kids
It’s either you kill or get killed
But yet! It’s the call of duty
A parade of pride for many
You’ll forever remain in the pages of history
Respect! To the fallen heroes of our land
As I use the ink of my glorious pen
To paint a flag of tribute
My heart will forever remain indebted
To the eagles of this great land…
