Just a Poem I wrote about the battle of Gettysburg

Post by Goldberg »

Gettysburg, A small Peaceful town was quite a Gaze
Untill Two great Armies clashed for three bloody days
Nearly 50,000 men fought and died that day
Some wore Blue, And some wore Gray
So many layed dead, it was quite a sad sight
As for General Robert E. Lee, he Fought a good fight
But as the Rebel Army marched away
The Union Army stood Victorious for those three bloody days
Nearly 50,000 men had fought and layed dead
"I have no Division" Picket had said
Both armies were tired
All rifles had been fired
But for now both armies rested
And the Union Army fested
For 50,000 men had fought and died those three bloody days

I don't know where else to post this, hope you guys like it!

Just looked up the word "fested". It doesnt seem to have a meaning except on urban dictionary. What did you think it meant??

Google search of the supposed word "fested":

Festing is a combination of resting and feasting.

Excessive festing can lead to festering.

And that's a Fact.
