Sonnetred and blue

Elizabethan A

Her young boy, whom drenched in heavy sweat peddled

B

gleam from the sun sunk in on her boy's greasy hair

A

oh how on that fateful day was he disheveled

B

facing the suns wrath and extreme glare

C

Riding against the torrent that was the wind

D

malnourished hands tightly grasping the handle bars

C

He wore a starved face from being so thinned

D

if only her young boy had seen the speeding cars

E

a shriek so loud that it was deafening

F

a mother so heartbroken that it was distressing

E

the ways in which the collision was severing

F

How it came back, the depression she was expressing

G

Now her son had also passed through

G

If dreams come true, nightmares do too

Theme: Death is so unexpected and horrific, enjoy your loved ones while you have them
