World war 1 poems

My tuesday are meatless, my coffee is sweetless, each day i get poorer and wiser. my home is heatless, my trousers are seatless, my god, but i do hate the kaiser

world war 1 song

There was a young lady of ypres who was hit in the cheek by two snipers. the tunes that she played through the holes that they made beat the argyll and the sutherland pipers

war poem

My belongings i leave to my next of kin, my picture is empty there's nothing in; My uniform, rifle, my pack and kit, i leave to the poor devil they will fit: but if this war i manage to clear i'll keep it my self for a souvenir.

history about war poems.

England in 1913. when the war started a year later he did not return to join the army. soildgers made up a popular song...

The moon shines bright on charlie chaplin, his boots are cracking, for want of blacking. and his little baggy trousers they want mending, before we send him to the dardaneless...

charlie didn't see the joke! "I really thought they were comeing to get me" he said. " it scared the living daylights out of my."

2_ many brit soildgers had their own monthly magazines in the trenches. the poems they published were a bit of fun in th misery of war...

There was a young Boche at Bazintin who liked the first trench that he went in. but a 15 inch 'dud' sent him flat in the mud and he found that his helmet was bent in.

3:

Not all of the poems were funny. there were some things that soildiers said over and over again to cheer them selves up. this simple poem in a trenches magazine took three of the sayings as its first three lines, then added its own fourth line..

it's a long road that has no turning, it's never too late to mend; the darkest hour is before the dawn and even this war must end.

4. poems were used in the hate-war against the enemy. in a children's magazine there was one to warn the dangers of german toys which, of course, were supposed to be poisonouse!

little girls and little boys, never suck you'e german toys, german soildgers lickes will make darling baby's tummy ache. parents, you should always try only british toys to buy; though pieces they be picked, british soildgers caun't be licked.

please do not copy any of these cause it is copy right and i have special detectors from freewebs.com.

thanks.
