Cinder

Blossoms in the morning dew 
A beautiful larks singing from afar

I look at each and every you
Days traverse sun to star

Dark clouds moving in so fast
Cinders’ about to make a mark

Debauchery of ash and ruin
Flowers burned no more lark

How quick a dream can turn to black
Erased and smoldering clouds are dark

Remnants piled on the ground 
Tears fall all is lost Cinder left a brutal mark

Rebuild regrow again someday 
A place of wonder of sun and heart.
