The Town that Once Was
The clouds
Bang! Crackle!
Giant yellow zigzags light the sky like fire;
disastrous booms of thunder crash upon the innocent town!
The town that weeps;
sorrowful and broken.
A town that used to be happy, sunny and warm, too;
now only deserted.
Happily playing children only a faint, frail memory.
Now only silence, for that is all that stays.
In this sorrowful town where
big booms of thunder crash and buckets of rain spill down
down
down.
The clouds that live in pain.
