I have selected this poem because it relates to not just the aftermath of war, but life during war. Soldiers kept diaries during wars and they would often write poetry, this is what led me to choose this peace of poetry. This relates to my book because the characters in my book are currently in war and writing diary entries as soldiers often did as well as writing poetry.

I chose this picture because it shows how the soldiers fight for us, and how we have out freedom because of soldiers. In the picture it shows a couple standing on the beach, and the soldiers are holding that ground up. This is showing that we have what we have because of the soldiers. This relates to my book because in the book the characters families have been taken and they have to fight for their freedom, so the families are standing on top of the main characters.
