Four Soles
When they heard the drone of the jets
They knew it was time to hide
And find a safe place to escape the threat
They knew they'd soon hear explosions outside
Despite the war and its destructive sting
They still did everyday things
like going shopping, doing chores
Just to survive one day more
It wasn't long before the jets came again
To deliver their explosive pain
Some had no hiding place to choose
And falling from the sky, came two pairs of shoes..........
