Description Our country declared war the other day.

The troops paraded through our city, and our class was allowed to visit a military facility. We were allowed to decorate the bombs that we were told were to be used against the enemy. My friend tied a pink ribbon onto one.

The next day, bombs rained down upon our heads.

I survived the raid. As I wandered the streets, wondering who was still alive, and who wasn't, I spotted a bomb on the ground, a dud.

It had a pink ribbon tied onto it.

Your stories could easily be made into bittersweet pictures, seriously.

That was genius. Thoughtful and a great sign of odd love (that's how I see it, anyways :v ) Great job.
