War torn

Taken back by time and History.

                      A forest on a country road in Europe.

      The trees still bear the scars from a forgotten battle

             that happened more than 8 decades ago

      with the woodlands being the only thing to remember.

Rusty, rugged, rotten helmets

        that Mother Nature is reclaiming

                         what was taken from her depths.

                              Artillery craters as big as garden sheds

hidden by undergrowth.

The skies blue once again.

      Dirt, dust hopefully never to rise the way it did.

Fauna and flora, the only living thing here.

 Just the way it should be.

Nature the one to rule them all.
