Operation Barbarossa: Hitler's big mistake.
Young and old, naive and learned,
Set out to conquer East.
They did not know, did not see:
The Third Reich's final feat.
It took me a minute to come up with that one seeing as nothing really rhymes with East, but I think it's fine as it is. I tried to make a longer poem about some of the events that happened during the invasion, like the Battle of Stalingrad, but I was afraid I would mess it up or something, you know, get my facts wrong. Oh my though, I feel sorry for those guys who fought in Russia during the time, but you gotta do what you gotta do for your country, and that's all the motivation most people need.
WWII was one hell of a war, and I really hope we don't have anything like it ever again...wishful thinking at it's best, I know.
