Those Dark Nights

An undated poem I wrote way back in grade school

 

 

It was when the precious rays of the sun dimmed

And one would grasp someone he missed

When the crickets and cicadas came to a halt

Everything came silent.

 

Nothingness grabbed the little country

Where each eye looked around and took fancy

As little clouds disappeared and got flaky

As little clouds emerged and got the county.

 

Light cannot be seen

Nor can it be touched

 

Nor you see a single streak peeping through the chaos

 

Nor you see any latch move.

Or hear harsh screams groove.

 

Hear rats squeak

Getting faint and weak

Hear a small leak

Everything came silent.

 

Nothing is as beautiful as dawn

Or as pure as sweet-perfumed dew

But as light began to be born

Everything else came silent.
