Peace And War

There was calmness all around,
As the trees swayed with delight
The treacherous war was out of sight.
One person changed it all,
And all the countries had to fall.
All the hopeful soldiers fought till the midnight sun,
His presence was enough to scare everyone.
Yet they didn’t know as the soldiers were doing,
What they could to save this pursuing.
There were appalling and terrifying sounds far and wide,
But they all still stood with pride.
Yet in the end his presence was gone,
This had been delivered at dawn.
Everyone never felt as relieved,
And we are so proud of what these warriors had achieved.
In the end, we all know negative things have a part,
On making the positive things start.
