Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDE CFGHIJK CLMCC NCCOPCQGR CPSCSCC CCGTU CThe fresh smells of ripe pineapples | A |
planted by the pathway to the stream | B |
rejuvenate my nose with juicy flavors | C |
and the greenish smells of fallen avocadoes | C |
Make my lips feel | D |
the buttery taste | E |
- | |
The sight of our once wilted flowers | C |
blooming gladdens my ill heart | F |
and my people's distant chanting | G |
drives me back in time | H |
to when the mild and meek shivered | I |
in dying cold in an atmosphere | J |
impregnated by gunpowder | K |
- | |
I sit with the kids | C |
to tell them the story of | L |
how they were brutally assaulted | M |
by vicious soul reapers | C |
and night time knights | C |
- | |
When they woke up | N |
to the cries of their pinpricks | C |
mourning the death of their fathers | C |
whose souls fled before the cock crowed | O |
accompanied by cachophony | P |
of killing machines | C |
as their offspring's dreams got enslaved | Q |
in a trance swooping | G |
them to become a tramp | R |
- | |
How they were curbed in cubbyholes | C |
like rats awaiting Mr Grim reaper's visitation | P |
how the hectic street swayed to a sanctuary | S |
no mongers | C |
and how they lost their dignity | S |
to the dogs vultures and owls | C |
feasting on their beloved ones | C |
- | |
How silence ruled with gripping fears | C |
in our hearts before we gained back our voice | C |
to sing | G |
in coherence to the wave | T |
of the waving bloodstained flag | U |
- | |
to sing the SONG OF PEACE | C |
