Part of Wilfred Kemsley’s Anthology exploring the Nature of the Holocaust, and its impact on the modern world.

Can you hear the sound of silence ring

Across the fields the birds don’t sing

For in that place, no Burial

The Ashes Fall On Israel

Can you see the Brick and Wire

The chimney smoke, the burning fire

The countless piles of material

The Ashes Fall On Israel

Can you taste the pitiful sliver of gruel

The boots of soldiers, hard and cruel

Just numbers for names, no individual

The Ashes Fall On Israel

Can you smell the hideous huts

Were tear drops fall on wooden bunks

The clearing of dead, just trivial

The Ashes Fall On Israel

Can you touch the hearts and minds

To save those lost, none left behind

For god will call upon his people

The Ashes Fall On Israel
