Soldiers, bright-eyed and mud-covered
Trudge through visions of their blood brothers
Minds weary of war
Names inscribed in marble stone
Author notes
To my brothers and sisters

I can see how this won gold it is a great piece of poetry. I think spacing it a bit closer would be a good thing, but it does make a high impact. Great job.

Very nice work here
Should the whispers of their fallen commrads be heard the world would fall silent. To be near and see the head stones the words can be felt within the soul .
Lord let there be peace on earth for no child should ever be face to face with the devil.
