Poem
It was dusk They were in a hurry Paul, John, Jake and Larry The darkness was creeping in They lifted the earth Covering the last piece of evidence A wicked bunch of rebels Young and foolish they were They smiled at themselves Mission accomplished! Deeds buried! Oh, how smart they were… …or so they thought They picked up their tools And fled the scene of the crime No one saw them No one suspected a thing No one in sight to judge their sin No cause for alarm! Off to their home Straight to the shower And ….to their beds They shut their eyes Happy with their success Pay day was in a few hours The boss would be so proud of them But little did they know That was just the beginning The wind blew hard As they snored their guilt away The blanket of sand upon the earth was lifted high The trees bowed down to welcome the rain And then the rain poured Weeping like a mother who had just lost her child It poured In anger…it poured Uncovering every buried piece of evidence Revealing the hidden evil The earth, wind and rain formed a partnership As the rebels snored away The earth, wind and rain had a vision They were determined to accomplish their mission… …Oh, what a night it was! And then the morning came Everything naked Everything revealed Everyone saw it Everyone knew it All that was covered was now naked Naked for all to see Naked it was Doomed they were By Sylvia Chika sylviachika@gmail.com http://sylviachika.blogspot.com/ http://sylviachika.wordpress.com/ https://www.facebook.com/sylviachikablog Instagram: @sylviachikawrites BBM Channel: C002F2845 Twitter:@sylviaoz © 2016 Sylvia Chika
