When bombs kill kids

 

Us poets are a strange species.

With stiff upper lip,

We have to talk of love, birds and bees,

And many a #splendour,

When bombs kill kids,

Idiots decide what’s right and wrong,

And many an atrocity,

I hear there’s AI for that,

But I can hear those machines cry, not us.

should we or should we not

 

The #timid Moon shyly winks 

At the blushing setting sun,

The creepers and the trees giggle,

The sand says sshhh to the waves,

Her dimple deepens, eyes sparkle,

Should we or should we not I ask again,

Bet you don't want to know

What we do right there on Nature's lap.
