What Happened? The sight of burned bodies‚ The smell of rotting human skin‚ We are surrounded by the victims of war’s wrath. How horrid can a war be? The landscape which used to be green and lush‚ Now black and barren. The rivers which used to roar with pure blue water‚ Now tainted with the blood of millions. As we walk through what used to be a beautiful village Now charred flesh and bones. One woman‚ barely recognizable as such Is found cradling her child of no more than 1 year old. And I can’t

The Troll’s Nosegay by Robert Graves A simple nosegay! was that much to ask? (Winter still irked‚ with scarce a bud yet showing). He loved her ill‚ if he resigned the task. “Somewhere‚” she cried‚ “there must be blossom blowing.” It seems my lady wept and the troll swore By Heaven he hated tears: he’d cure her spleen – Where she had begged one flower he’d shower fourscore‚ A bunch fit to amaze a China Queen.

All the three poems deal with the distorted image and status of women‚ and how this had an
