War and Tragedy

Fields of Flowers

country as flag
Beneath the soil where flowers grow
Lies the tranquil bones of men
Who in honor spilled their blood
In hopes this battle they would win.

Nourished with their precious blood
These flowers in happiness grow
But the sadness that this rich soil hides
These flowers will never know.

For no matter how much happiness
They bring to those who survived
They n'eer can bring the hopes and dreams
Of the brave men who in battle died.
