When The Sky Was Blue

Repost one of my older poems written in 1999

after the Columbine High School masacre

 

When the sky was blue I was

but a tot playing in the parking lot

all 4 seasons came at their given  time

stealing a candy bar was a major crime

fun was the order of the day

25 cents went a long way

just watching the airplanes take off

into the sky

me wondering whats above those

clouds so high

When the sky was blue the air was fresh

knew nothing of the meshing of flesh

I never knew of an ozone

and

my castle was our home

going to school was cool

now killing fellow students    is 

the rule

somewhere on the way I was off

to war half way around the world

very far to kill a man I never knew

When the sky was blue  everything 

was okay

somewhere in between the sky turned

dark and gray lets pray it doesnt

stay that was

God blees those innocent souls whose life waas taken away

in Texas folks

need to do something get those cowards money filteingr people out of DC they dont care about the people who put them in office
