Out
of the blue
the bombs reigned down
upon the sleeping
men and ships
and blew the harbor up
and ripped
the fleet apart
the balance tipped
No warning came
as men awoke
to find their lives
gone up in smoke
Pearl Harbor was
the target then
all hope was sunk
by grim Japan
Yet in the end
America awoke
and brought revenge
a giant poked
a mighty nation
with courage found
will to resist
and soon rebound
Americans
still rue this day
memories persist
of the price we paid
while hearts still hurt
filled with regret
this day recalled
Never Forget.

Japanese Navy Air Service upon the United States (a neutral country
at the time) against the naval base at Pearl Harbor in Honolulu, Territory
of Hawaii, just before 08:00, on Sunday morning, December 7, 1941.
The attack led to the United States' formal entry into World War II
the next day. en.wikipedia.org |
