The final of my five line poems, for a while. dlj

Five solders marching in line
Each step in syn-co-pa-ted design
High steps low steps dressed so fine, surely,
A military tribute; a heavenly sign
Marching 1,2,3.4…no war this time.

...a hypnotic effect of your 5 liner's poem, Dan
brings the tuneful rhythm of a marching soldiers
and strikes an inspiring melody of hope...a happy
experience of both...the verse and sound of a new
World without...a war.
Thank you for sharing.
