After the stormA Poem by David DodsworthDebris scatters the beach, resembling the aftermath of a great war
creatures from the abyss lay dying, like soldiers on the battlefield Slowly the sun breaks through, the now fading darkness above
Deathly silence is bone chilling, broken only by a solitary gull crying for the dead, as he flies higher and higher,then into the sun Mother nature rests,Weary and tired from the battle she won
The reaper was here,collecting the souls of the dead, Patiently waiting. for the injured to draw there last breath
everthing has gone nothing remains,only memories of how it was From the destruction a new day is born giving life a second chance
Alas the storm is over, LIFE WILL RETURN D.J.Dodsworth © 2012 David Dodsworth |
