We Remember- Liberation Poem

Explanation: I wrote this poem to present my views on the journal entry written by Charles V. Ferree from his feelings about the liberation of the Jewish as an American soldier. I based the poem about the main points using nouns, verbs and adjectives. The poem is dedicated to those men and women who lost their lives during WWII.

Liberation Poem:

Lifeless bodies are scattered,
As we land on the makeshift landing strip.
As I wonder whatever went wrong,
This has the nauseating feeling.
It does not stop whether it’s Buchenwald, Munich or Dachua,
The Jews are now rebelling.
Burning their uniforms with the awful stench floating in the air,
Beating the guards senseless,
It’s what they have been taught.
The starvation, the torture, and the suffering,
Revenge is what motives them.
Is this really liberation?
Demands from Eisenhower called,
Is anyone listening?
Germans have started something that can never be finished.
