A Short And Sweet Poem by agbolele: 4:59pm On Sep 15, 2012 |
RAINBOW CRAYONS AND WHITE PAGES The children were asked to paint What they remember of summerbreak In other parts of the world They would have painted beaches, bicycles And smiling stickmen in front of ice cream parlours But these stickmen were expressionless, Lying face down, shaded red In the background, the red and gold tongues Of renegade flames licked the sky Black with the soot of burning buildings, their homes.
