Life Goes On

Birds are calling
By my window;
People falling
On the teevee.

Yellow sun ...
White fluffy clouds ...
Clear blue sky ...

Eggs are frying
In my kitchen;
Voices crying
On the webcast.

Yellow fireballs ...
White billows of smoke ...
Sparkling blue glass shards ...

Swings are creaking
In the playground;
Sirens shrieking
On the airwaves.

Yellow licks of light on my sons' faces ...
White pillar candle ...
Hot blue core of flame ...

Days are turning
Into Autumn;
Children learning
Ancient lessons.
