Holocaust

1941 Adolf Hitler became head of the Germans,

Throughout the years, this was determined.

Disliking the Jews,

he wouldn’t listen, to their views.

Nuremberg Law, was put in place

These laws, the Jewish had to face.

Rights to business, marriage and school,

Where striped away,

When they woke, they had to obey.

Forced to wear, yellow stars,

They have no honour, only scars.

Banned from public parks,

And everything normal,

Their lives were far from formal.

The sadness they held, for the loss of children

The count was enormous, 1.1 million.

Mass shootings, became an order

Carried out by Germans and Collaborators

This was total disorder.

Policy of extermination, became about,

The final resting place, without a doubt.

Camps were created,

Some for labour, but mostly death,

In the camps, they took their last breath.

Gas chambers for the Jewish, is enough

To make you bluish.

Being told to undress, thinking to be showered,

The Nazi’s felt empowered.

But when they were caught

They were nothing but cowards.

the persecution and planned slaughter

didn’t matter if you were

man, women or daughter.

It’s unimaginable, what these people felt,

Sadly, it was the life

They were dealt.
