A Wonderful Post

I read 'The Diary of Anne Frank'. It's mainly about a Jewish family [the Frank family] going into hiding during Hitler's [you know, the guy who hated Jews and tried to kill them all off] regime. The diary is mainly about how a teenage girl [Anne Frank] is coping with life in hiding. She, like all other teens, argues with her family, and experiences normal teenage emotions such as love, anger, longing, hatred, annoyance, happiness, and relief. Her exciting life in a hideout is expressed through strong words, dialogue and personal feelings. She talked quite a lot about how lucky she was to still be alive while other Jews out there were being killed by the thousand. Although she and her family were eventually discovered and sent to concentration camps, this diary was left in the hiding place, found and kept by friends of the Frank family, waiting for one of the Franks to claim it. Otto Frank, Anne's father, the only one who survived, read through the diary, understanding his daughter's feelings through their time in hiding, edited certain unwanted parts, and published it.
I recommend this book to those who want to understand the life of a Jew during Hitler's regime and especially want to find out how people in hiding coped with limited resources and having to stay silent for fear of being discovered.
* The book includes strong feelings, and 'sick thoughts', as you may put it. [Well, that's what it is, really. Just warning you before you read it.]

I wrote a poem about the book
Could you please take a look?:
Adolf Hitler's persecution of Jews,
Really was all over the news.
So the Frank family went to hide,
Just to be safe, to stay alive.
Anne had a diary to keep her thoughts,
Of how she coped with life, how Jews fought,
For their existence, for their lives,
For their children, husbands and wives.
Young Anne viewed it all,
From the little window on the wall.
Witnessing death, witnessing escape,
Witnessing the Nazis banging down a Jew family's gate.
Eventually captured and passed away,
Young Anne died on a sad, sad day.
In early March 1945,
A deadly illness took her life.

I hope you liked the poem you just read,
It just came off the top of my head.
[Or should it be mind?]
So here I sign,
Sincerely me,
Sumithri V.
