Orange Poppy
Sitting there,
In his own silince,
As the sun goes down,
He watches,
Gettting darker now,
He stands,
Still takig in the view,
He now turns,
His back to the sunset,
Looking at his shadow,
Its stretching long now,
He smiles,
But what he says,
It is not nice,
"What has this world come too?"
He bows his head,
Now hes praying,
When hes done,
He walks off,
Into the west,
Because he knows,
He has to go.
