Tom Zart Poems

The hornets of hell swarm from their nest
Overwhelming all the victims they can.
To sting as many souls as possible
In their destruction of the glory of man.
...

Tears are the raindrops of the soul
And there's one for all who die.
They are the silent words of grief
As they fall free from the eye.
...

We're a nation of frazzled families
With little time for personal affection.
As the treadmills of tension keep us hostage
We're losing our perspective of direction.
...

Every man should be a soldier
As it was with Romans and Greeks.
Evil loves to yoke both mind and soul
And strike freedom from our cheeks.
...

PARIS ATTACKS & GOD’S CALL = 2015
Thousands of years before Christ was born
No matter the species man kills more.
Warriors with weapons sounded their horn
...

In their new uniforms the young march off
Not knowing who shall return.
With a proud devotion
They brandish their flag
...

War I hate, though not men, flags nor race
But war itself with its ugly face.
When we lose faith in the brave, which die
Then we're not fit to greet those who cry.
...

Combat soldiers have proclaimed before
There are no atheists in a foxhole.
All tend to pray to whom they worship
When their fate is beyond their control.
...

The just and the unjust shall clash as before
As both sides seek victory valor and more.
The tyrants of evil hate that which is good
Freedom, with justice, living life, as we should.
...

Too many riffles have been shoved in the ground
With battlefield helmets on top for a crown.
The war between evil and all which is good
Has raged on longer than before wheels of wood.
...
