The dawn came <br />With a promise of great happiness <br />But you, <br />with your dragon breath, <br />You clouded the sky <br />Birds stopped singing <br />Flowers stopped blooming <br />Rivers stopped short <br />On their way to the ocean <br />While time lay trapped <br />In perma frost<br /><br />leonard daranjo<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/darkness-at-dawn/
