I occasionally write war poetry, and I have just posted a new piece in the War poems section. The poem was inspired by a recent visit to a local church graveyard, where I saw a Commonwealth War Graves Commission gravestone dedicated to a young Flight Engineer, who was killed in action in 1942. He was just twenty (20) years of age – five years younger than our grandson. it takes a lot for that to sink in.
This poem, “Sergeant N. E. One”, is for him.
