Haikus

THESE HAIKUS I MADE UP WERE FOR FUN

The beautiful day,
the dazzling sun, flowers and
the warmth of summer


The leaves change color
that match the gleaming sunset,
the glorious sight


The cold windy night
chills, blows, and cries, whispering
“Woosh, woosh” in the dark


A new beginning
a new life to celebrate
glowing dawn and spring

I HOPE YOU LIKE THEM. COMMENT IF YOU DO OR DON"T PLEASE.

Pros for dropping the Atomic Bomb(Why we should've dropped the bomb)


            This was a project for school. I thought I would post it.
  • The Japanese were committing suicide(kamikaze) and wouldn’t give up. Even when we killed 100,000 people with firebombs it didn’t bother them.
  • The 2 targeted cities would’ve been firebombed anyway. We might’ve even killed more people that way.
  • When we used the atomic bombs we also were warning Stalin(Russia) to be careful and don’t get into trouble.
  • Stalin killed more people than Hitler and the Nazis. It he came down to Japan, he would’ve stayed there and also took over Manchuria of China and Korea and turned them into to Communist countries.
  • Even after we used the 2 atomic bombs, the Japanese still didn’t want to surrender. Only a few of the government were ready to surrender, but most weren’t. But finally their emperor who’s like a god to them, realized they’d lose, so he told them to surrender.
  • It’s the president’s duty to protect American lives.
  • Allied prisoners were being slaughtered by the Japanese and they were doing experiments on the prisoners of war. They did Death Marches. They forced the prisoners to march and if one fell, they would stab him. They were also beaten, forced to kill another, and even buried alive. In a way, it was like another Holocaust. Harming prisoners of war was against the law.
  • In total about 240,000 people died from both bombs. That would’ve been nothing if the war had continued. The bombings on Hiroshima and Nagasaki saved more people than it killed. Another million people would’ve died or even more.
