A poem i entered into a competition is being published.
its about a Soldier in the First World War in the trenches
Entrenched Senses:
Flash! A halo of yellow white light
Resonant cracking sounds of pop and thud
Acrid; Smokey stench of deathly mud.
Instantaneous sulphuric tang akin
Translucent feelings intense pain left within.
Vivid instant thoughts from home seep in.
Deep and profound unease, of foreboding woe
Visionary and pleading words make Amends aglow
Fleeting life, demised, a pause:
The Soul transcends or so seems so
