Suffering in Silence, a poem by Kenan

Source: Mary Evans

Suffering in Silence

The soldiers slept through the night,
The bombs shoot down really bright.

"Gunshots," the soldiers say,
They want their enemies to pay.

The soldiers lost one-nil to the frogs,
But they really care about the dog.

The dog watched his friendly soldiers die,
And once a German stared at him,
Gave a look and said, "Look alive?"

The dog was shot and died,
The next day, the dog's soldier owner picked him up.
He cried, "Why?"

By Kenan


This poem was inspired by our study of Wilfred Owen's 'Dolce Et Decorum Est'.
