Nok View have decided to wish you a new month with this poetry
Titled: History seen and heard, Lessons not learnt.
Looking back to different historic event
So many lessons to be learnt
Numerous pain felt
Death recorded
Mistakes made
Love not excluded
History heard and seen, Lesson not learnt.
Strong Civilisation present in the past
Yet, Strong Civilisation collapsed
Territories conquered
Strong men, women and children dying
Roman Empire, Greek Civilisation
Aztec Civilisation, Maya Civilisation
Songhai, Mali and Benin Empire not excluded
Blood spillage
History heard and seen, Lesson not learnt.
Ravenous Warfare’s
Ranging all around the world
At different times
Against different people
Also people in Civilisation, Empire, Countries, States…
Fighting against oneself
Thus directly and indirectly affecting the globe
The Mfecane, The Great War (World War 1) World War 2
To mention a few
Event Recorded in nature, environment and books for all to see
History heard and seen, Lesson not learnt.
