(Veteran Day Series) “Somewhere” (Epilogue)

 
“Somewhere”

(Prelude:
 
Often times one hears
whispers in the silences
then removed quickly
as if one is afraid
then hidden from all
until again venturing
peeking around a tree
((over there we hid))
and again the quiet
battlefields all the same
carnages now removed
peaceful fields found
somewhere once there
for wars are continuous
one seeking another’s
freedoms or treasures
even today if in deceit
governments v. citizens
the goals the same
some to have all power
others simply freedoms
while most ignorant
that any wars fought
enslaved to their wants
regardless of the costs!)
