Night of crystals
Shattering in the dark
Walls of glass
Falling to the grass


Bloody night of cries
Screaming in the fear
Walls of glass
Falling to the grass


Icy night of death
Burning in the black
Walls of glass
Falling to the grass


Smokey night of glass
Sorrowed fall of people
Walls of glass
Falling to the grass

Just a poem to signal my return. Been going through a bunch of junk, coupled with writer's block. This one's to honor the Night of Broken Glass.

This is an interesting subject to write poetry about, and i think you addressed it very well.  Keep posting!

Oooo this is a good one. Such symbolism in a short piece is always great to read.

Well done!

I like it, but i really didn't fancy the repetition or the way it was used here. I thought there should have been more to the poem. Oh well....you did ok on this one.
Welcome back.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I admire it daily
