THE PLAGUE
#WritcoPoemPrompt114
Just after a gentle shower you see a rainbow,
While going through the woods in cavorting auras,
The birds are all so friendly wherever you go,
In every tree they sing you a chorus,
That echoes through the quiet woods.

Humming along as you skip joyfully,
Ever so lightly your voice blends in,
Producing the best melody you have ever heard,
'Oh, how I wish the time would stop in this moment,'
'Or I could record this moment,'

'Just a bit longer will I cherish this serenity,'
'And alas, this scene juggles my memory,'
'Of the good old days of childhood,'
'When the family was still whole and complete.'

'Happily running around the woods,'
'With the sounds of laughter never stopping,'
'We were close knitted,'
'Until the evil plague of death separated us,'

'And killed the joy in the family and made the woods void of life,'
'But maybe things are starting to change; for the better of course.'
