Order Before
Order Before
Order in order there is no order before
Off the cliff wild berries follow the flow
A simple wind and off John goes
Tumbles with lost footing
He grabbed the berry bush
Off they go together
Nothing more happens after that
One slip before the rock, lost footing lost
Gone, falling down the tumbling down
Ann would not approve of this
If she knew she would be frantic
She loves wild berries in their order
Out of order is not her style at all
Ordered to stop…no stop in sight
Poor John falling off the cliff
Not coming back of course
Ann disapproves of that for sure
She loves wild berries and that is that
A view irrefutable
John's return is questionable at best
He placed his order out of order before the drop
Cliff gives nothing back
Once gone nothing new will occur
Reaching other conclusions is futile of course
What comes into view came into view at last
Came to that irrefutable conclusion, the end of him
