The War To End All Wars

by Isobel McCarthy aged 10

The bombs thunder down.
I’m carrying on.
My friends, so brave, as bullets bring them to their grave.
I’m carrying on.
I trudge through No Mans Land, my life is balanced on a delicate strand.
Will I live for another day?
Or shall I be slaughtered, and fade away?

(This is a poem dedicated to all the brave soldiers who fought during WW1, for their bravery, courage and who saved us all)
