i struggled brandon. i thought of the holocaust but that's not it, if it is, it needs a bit more information. at present it's a bit too ambiguous. (for me)

What used to be
Green canopy and
Awe-inspiring velvet
Is now a mere shell scrape.
No room to stretch,
To even stand.
They marched to make merry,
For their favourite child.
Wistful imagining
Removed bloodshed,
Made heroes out of them.
They then marched back,
Cramped in the bunk.
Until veteran yellow is awarded,
And warmth kept with dust blankets.
Toy soldiers yearn for the frontline,
Wishing upon the light sliver
To tread ever so softly
On the green canopy once again.
