Refugees
By BBennettJ • May 29th, 2008 • Category: PoemsRefugees
Bowing their heads as they go
Shoulders drooped
Discouraged
Tattered
Empty and stressed
Looking for something to save them
Longing for peace
Longing for rest
Battling out of the swift pollution
Crawling up on the shore
Bound for chains and slavery
Bound to suffer more
If only I could save them
There’s no choice but passing on
The time of escape from the horror
Slipped away and is gone
Men and women
And babes in arms
Feeble
Not able to stand
Clinging to some battered treasure
Some are walking
Some are wavering
Some groping forth
On their hands
And their knees
