Hiroshima

All the lives did dwell in town, Laughed and grew they all, Then , Sun rose from land and covered the sand, With a bloody pall. The second sun came from the west, Out on the land came he, Coloured in the hue of mortal blood, It wreaked the sorrow's sea! No one shouted , cried, moved or ran! In air vanished everyone, Instead of light , they had gained, Darkness from the rising sun. Where they went? Oh! Where they went! Knows no one , but the ground, In bright light , from it's sight , Was gone, whatever it had found! The smoke cleared and West cheered , For the battle it had won , Else no words , of praise were heard, About that gory sun!
