Through the smoky horizons

come brushes with death

spirit drifts in the clouds

attempting to avoid theft

Fire advances

planes and offices burn

buildings collapse

wondering where to turn

Evil spurts out ashes

rumors of whose to blame

devil’s faces in the smoke

haunting and filled with shame

A light flickers

calling souls out of the dark

the light grows stronger

comfort in the park

Rain falls

there is new life

never forgetting those

who passed into the night

Blue lights shine

illuminating the sky

a memorial to those lost

spirit of hope never dies
