once life, now loss once life, now loss

One time it used to be, One time it used be, as wonderful as it could be: as as it could be:

The bright happy flowers, The bright happy flowers, smiling at the sun. smiling at the sun The newborn birds, The newborn birds, chirping in their nests. chirping in their nests

The lush green trees, The lush green trees, filling the mountains. the mountains

The cool spring air, The cool spring air, blowing across the grass. blowing across the grass

But then darkness came, But then darkness came, and the place turned cold: and the place turned cold:

The dead murky flowers, The dead murky flowers, stared down at the dirt, stared down at the dirt, and the ageing birds, and the ageing birds, with no energy to fly with no energy to fly.

The leafless trees, The leafless trees, quivered in the wind, quivered in the wind, and the ice-cold rain and the ice-cold rain splattered against the dead bodies splattered against the dead bodies.
