The White Handkerchief
By Jack Harris, 1st year.
Senseless war all around
A young boy lies on the ground
Bullets flying left and right
Cannot tell who’s winning the fight
People running all around
The boy still lies upon the ground
Who will save him, who will come?
There are soldiers all around with guns
Not a savior, just a man
Doing all he possible can
He waves his handkerchief in the air
“Stop you fools, this isn’t fair.”
Gunfire stops, there’s silence all around
The priest approaches the boy still lying upon the ground
With help he lifts the body free
This poor young man, his future he will not see
But the kind act of this brave man
Paused war, with a simple wave of his hand
