Destruction

They wander through in the darkness of the night,
Cowards who hide from the daytime light,
Ripping the ground with their bikes and cars,
Leaving the families with many scars.

Markers and grave stones smashed and ruined,
All because they enjoy what they're doing,
No rhyme or reason of the destruction doing,
The shattered families are not the only ones losing.

Yes it’s sad Judith and although you’ve expressed feelings about them it’s not the kind of inspiration any of us need.

Life is not all joyful. We must recognize the bad and sad things in life too. Sorry, you did not like the poem.

Joy cannot come from destruction of things some place great value in!
