Wilfred Owen, War Poet Posted: 2 years ago by Marz
Wilfred Owen Fought, and died, in world war one. This is one of his most famous poems. Whilst in a hospital being treated for shell shock, he met Siegfreid Sassoon, who really helped him to express his feelings in his poetry. His poems show the terrible cost of WW1, and I think, whatever your feelings about past, or current wars, there's no doubt that the men who fight in them deserve our respect. Another of his poems can be found here: Anthem for a Doomed Youth

The imagery in this poem is so powerful. Evokes the horror that trench warfare must have been so disturbingly.
