D Day/1940S Week end - Childs confusion of War

Hi again

With it being Brighouse 1940s Weekend and Anniversary of D Day Landings thought would re-share a poem my Dad Barry Walker wrote many years ago.
RIP Dad
Enjoy.


A Child's Confusion of War

Oh Daddy please don't hurt me
Or ever make me cry
As I wish to save my teardrops
For those who have to die
Then I'll cry a thousand tears
For those I do not know
As it may save a little boy
The teardrops he doesn't know
As he will never have a Daddy
To love and scald him so
As he will be an orphan boy
And he will never know
So please don't hurt
Or make me cry
As I wish to save my teardrops
For those who have to die
