Black Potatoes
June 14, 2010
dark clouds fill the sky
the people of Ireland are wondering why?
it rains and pours for a few days
harvesting time for the praties
finally food for the family
no one starving
no one whining
the potatoes are dark and spotted
not good enough too eat
soon hunger pains at them
urning for a meal to devour
hunger makes a man an animal
why did God send this here
on a midnight so clear
but the English laugh and taunt
and it will not haunt their bitter hearts
