Cold rain falls now across the silent place the leaders pat themselves on the back a job well done against the Hun never minding the broken thousands who gave their lives for a cause not fully understood.

Well portrayed and told. I like the use of rhyming and vivid imagery. Also there is a lot of feeling in it, all in all it's very well done. :)
