***THE CLOUD IS
BLACK***
In the middle of a
bright day,
The white cloud
dress in black:
Winds blowing with
ray,
As tall trees bend
not crack.
Little children
running and singing,
Mothers sheltering
their infants;
As storm arouse
mightily stinging,
Pulling down young
unsolid plants.
Pots and buckets
gaze up,
To the sealed sky
for water;
As pilots win
vigilancy on top,
For the cloud is
black of water.
Small birds
chirping away,
Wandering rats run
into hole,
Fleeding from
being a prey,
To the water with
bole.
Villagers running
hether-skether,
Covering torned
bamboo roof,
For earth is ready
to host water,
From sky with a
plain proof.
POET: ANTHONY DONDO
***THE WORLD IS AT
WAR***
I stood
steadfastly on a tower,
And beheld the
world lower,
Behold the world
is at war,
As I diligently
plainly saw: .
The world is at a
silent war,
No one observe the
war,
For the war is
like a pest,
That harm plants
without post. .
The nations of
many population,
With terrorist
make not negotiation,
In spite of human
precious blood,
Flowing on ground
like flood. .
The nations
without emergency,
Are suffering from
insurgency,
That mercilessly
waste soul,
With deadly weapon
like fowl. .
The world nations
are in danger,
Of fearless
merciless avenger,
That take revenge
of maltreatment,
And kill for their
desire's fulfillment. .
The world is
shaking in panic,
Having not to be
strong tonic,
Popular nations
are weaken,
For they the war
have shaken. .
POET: ANTHONY DONDO
***THUNDER***
A sharp light
lighten from west,
With a terrible
fearful sound-
Threatening weak
not to rest,
As strong-giants
panic round; .
Playing children
stumble and fall,
Roaring lions
silent in fears,
For the sound
humble the tall,
And merciless eyes
invite tears; .
Fearful youth's
heart shake,
Aged stagger and
kiss floor,
As hypension's
victim host stroke,
For the sound
shake rich and poor. .
Oh terrible sound
of thunder!
On weak sand you
sound louder. .
