The blue skies <br />A different hue <br />Familiar yet distant <br /> <br />Some smog <br />Mist and fog <br />With dew of last night <br /> <br />Will lift <br />But the sun doesn't seem <br />As strong as it was <br /> <br />The foggy air lingers <br />Unafraid and unwilling <br />The sun shies away <br />Hiding the horizon <br /> <br />I've heard it said on bad days <br />Like Chernobyl and Twin towers <br />Bomb smoke over Baghdad <br />And now Lebanon and Israel <br />And other sad times <br /> <br />Weakens the sun to shine <br />And come out <br /> <br />But the plants will wither and die <br />Flowers fade and decay <br /> <br />So we prayed to the sun <br />Promised to change our ways <br />If she would come back <br /> <br />The clouds dispersed <br />And clear skies returned <br />And we <br />Lived hapily ever after <br /> <br />SWhimon Weinroth<br /><br />shimon weinroth<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fairy-tale-7/
