Dreams

Watering cascades
Flowing downstream
Brushing sunbeams
Laughter and dreams

Brushed blue sky
Like and artist brush
Funnel of white
Spread out
Like fairy dust

Thirst filled throats
Heat wrapped tight
Travelling on string
Colourful kite

Scent of the green
A familiar smell
Coins left at the bottom
Of a wishing well

Running through
The yellow patterned field
Wonder of the crop
It will yield

Click hearing the camera
Snap snap snap
People cheering on
Clap clap clap

Voices in rejoice
Wonder fills the air
Are we nearly there

 

Silenced

Bridges flooded
Divided by war
Echoes of yesterday
Minds are tore

Caged inside
Bloodied prints
On walls of fear
No time to run
No time for tears

Blasted from arms
Of their Mothers
Fathers crippled
Brought to their knees

Silence it falls
On the shadows ground
Echoes of yesterday
Hunted like a hound
