June's Rhymes
A Devastating Night
It was a devastating night, filled with fright.
It was cold and bitter, they stood and shivered.
The flames blazed high, into the night sky.
Where is Kevin? There's six, where's seven?
Go back inside, it will require; there's a fire.
Wake up Kevin, get out!, was the shout.
No shoes, no shirt, but you're not hurt.
Your belongings are gone, you have no home.
It's cold and raw, you've lost it all.
In shock and sad, you feel so bad.
Recovery is slow, where do you go?
You were on your feet, life was sweet.
Now, you're broke. It all went up in smoke.
Dedicated to my son Kevin, whom I dearly love.
I am so thankful I still have him.
It was cold and bitter, they stood and shivered.
The flames blazed high, into the night sky.
Where is Kevin? There's six, where's seven?
Go back inside, it will require; there's a fire.
Wake up Kevin, get out!, was the shout.
No shoes, no shirt, but you're not hurt.
Your belongings are gone, you have no home.
It's cold and raw, you've lost it all.
In shock and sad, you feel so bad.
Recovery is slow, where do you go?
You were on your feet, life was sweet.
Now, you're broke. It all went up in smoke.
Dedicated to my son Kevin, whom I dearly love.
I am so thankful I still have him.
