A Dash of Sunny

It was the time,
Around midnight.
Thy senses void;
Lacking insight.

In the darkness,
It slowly crept.
Slithering across;
Step by step.

Until at dawn,
To utter disbelief!
Corpses lying heaped!
Swiftly, horror seeped.

Before thee knew,
The world hath ceased!
Killings amid;
Thee horrid beasts!

A glimpse of the end,
Was all hath caught.
Women and children,
Fully distraught!

None of these things,
Felt righteous to thee.
The truth, alas!
It could not be!

What could be done?
Grievously thy thought!
Peace and sanctity,
Itching to be sought!

As the candle burns itself out;
Diminishing darkness,
Ceasing all doubt.

Lo! The sight,
So utterly majestic!
A cascade of water,
Allegedly artistic!

Hear thy breath,
Whisper in the air.
Water gushing slowly,
Propelling thee to stare.

Alas! The water,
Shimmering coral blue.
Painting up thy cheeks,
A soft crimson hue.

Basking there despite,
The hour of twilight.
Its time to bid adieu.
Walk the woods through.

Lo! The sight,
So utterly majestic!
A cascade of water,
Allegedly artistic!

Over the snow;
The wintry breeze
Yet no one to plough.

In the midst of,
Surreal wilderness.
Thee shone as a light,
In pitch darkness.

It was the time of Spring,
A maiden which ye met,
Seemed as though,
From Beijing!

Like blooming roses,
Had our youth begun.
Lovelier more than,
The shining sun.

Soon thou hath
Become;
Closer, than thy
Own thumb.

This comradeship,
Oh so pure!
Like roaring waves,
Upon a shore.

So cherish thy bond,
Whilst ye share.
Like wintry leaves,
Tis so rare.
