WW2 Poem Hattie K

PRESENTATION OUTLINE

WOMAN WORK VERY HARD,

PLANTS SWAY AND DANCE IN THE BREEZE,

GIGGLE TO EACH OTHER AS THE WIND BLOWS PAST.

DARKNESS FALLS UPON THE FARM LIKE BLACKOUT CURTAINS DESCENDING FROM THE SKY,

LIGHTS ON THE FARM TWINKLE LIKE STARS FROM AFAR,

ANIMALS MOAN AND GROAN AFTER A LONG DAY AT WORK,

AIR RAID SIRENS DROAN IN THE DISTANCE FILLING WORKERS WITH FEAR AND DREAD.

THE ALL CLEAR SIREN WHINES,

BLUE SKIES UP ABOVE ARE LIKE THE SEA ON A CALM DAY,

A BUZZ OF HAPPINESS FILLS THE AIR,

LAND LADIES WANDERING IF ANYTHING IS DAMAGED IN THE TOWNS AND CITIES,

THE HORSE TROTS ALONG LIKE SOMEONE KNOCKING AT A DOOR,

HE HAS COME TO COLLECT THE FOOD FOR ALL THE PEOPLE,

WILL THIS WAR END?
