A thunderstorm came this way,
A tree fell tonight.
A cow died under it,
And a nest was broken by.
A house was blown a mile away,
A beggar froze to death.
A child shivered to its end,
As the old grand ma cried.
Lightless lamp, noisy gate,
Scattered food, empty plate.
Shattered house, broken nest,
Torn blanket is all we get.
A tight lip, a shaking hand,
Restless eyes with fear of death.
A heart praying again and again,
“Oh God! Not again!!”
One hope still stands by,
Tomorrow the sun will shine.
The only candle that survived,
Will lighten all the lives.
The golden rays will make their way,
To this street of sorrow and pain.
Tearing the heart of darkness,
Giving strength to life again.
Surly, the New Day won’t be the same.
Working....
Stay Tuned For The Next Entry!!
