Imagine 1941
Imagine
Imagine a place so sweet and kind
Imagine where your neighbors and friends would all be fine
Imagine No one committed not one crime
But at the age of fifteen It began to decline
Imagine innocent lives being taken in handfuls at a time
Imagine no street nor ally not covered by a Russian police guy
Imagine your land being taken by soldiers from across the lines
Imagine
In 1941 these were the things that happened daily
Mother’s cry and watch Russians take away their baby’s
Kids so confused to why everyone was going all crazy
Imagine
Before all this they could play ball
Before all this they could all talk
Before all this they had a Voice
They had a Choice
Before all this they could sit all day and be lazy
Before all this they could be a Man or a Lady
Imagine
Imagine could we find a way to dissolve this mess we have made
Well just Maybe
If we help the Young
If we take away the Gun
And say that we are DONE
If we could have only stop it before it Begun
Before they made us carry a Ton
If only we could have Run
If we could have stop them and won
Imagine what it would be like in 1941

It was inspired by a book called "Ashes in the Snow" AKA "Between Shades of Gray"/. We had to imagine what it would be like to be in shoes of 15 year old girl during 1941. It is inspired me to write this rhyming poem. This is my favorite piece so far.
