A Collection of Poems

By [Author's Name]

When the men go off to war, the women are left behind to pick up the pieces. They must continue to run the household, care for the children, and keep the farm going. They must also face the worry and uncertainty of not knowing when or if their loved ones will return.

The poems in this collection give voice to the experiences of these women. They speak of the fear of losing their loved ones, the hope that they will return safely, and the grief of those who do not.

These poems are a testament to the strength and resilience of women. They are a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is always hope.

Excerpt from "The Soldier's Wife"

My husband has gone off to war,

And I am left alone,

With only my thoughts for company,

And the fear that gnaws at my bones.

I worry about him every day,

I pray for him every night,

But I know that there is nothing I can do

But wait and hope for his safe return.

Excerpt from "The Mother's Prayer"

Oh, please, dear God, protect my son,

And bring him home to me.

I know that he is fighting for our country,

But I cannot bear the thought of losing him.

I pray for his safety every day,

I pray for his strength and courage,

And I pray for his return.

Excerpt from "The Sister's Lament"

My brother has gone off to war,

And I am left behind,

With only the memories of our childhood,

And the knowledge that he may never come home.

I miss him every day,

I think of him every night,

And I pray for his safe return.

These poems are just a small sample of the many powerful and moving poems in this collection. When the Men Go Off to War is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the experiences of women during wartime.
