Fluttering Souls

Flutter Look up I see Their souls flittering past Down here smell carnage, hear clink, slash neighing a warning, another one falls Crunch of bone- stampeding to death Screams of dying horses Take me from here Flutter For the "SOUND OF EMOTION " sponsored by Nette Onclaud Written poem date 6/1/201 by A.

Amy, congrats on your win! This is terribly disturbing and sad. I'm sure it wasn't easy for you to write. Though, someone has to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves. Love and Blessings, Rhonda
