Tortured And Shot : Inspirational Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


 

 

They took him prisoner and made him stand and strip .

His back was not shielded from the strokes of their whip .

His hands were tied .

He was not permitted to sit .

They did not let him eat .

They did not let him sip .

See he is the soldier the one that they forgot .

Tortured then but at peace now .

He has had his lot  .

Sent away with a blindfold and then he was shot

Hundreds of good soldiers all buried in one plot .

When the end comes only then can their life begin  .

They died for something and someone they believed in .
