Cuban Missile Crisis Poem by James Timothy Jarrett

Cuban Missile Crisis

When the pale blue sky

That blankets the gulf

Turns rippling red

In orange hue

And thunder rumbles

Without abate

To the shelter!

To the shelter!

Before it's too late!

Steel doors and canned goods

All below ground

Tuck and cover and pray

You don't hear the sound

Is the world that insane?

How far have they Gone?

Say another prayer

And hope you see dawn
