The Dead Souls Stopped For A While At The Fairgrounds Poem by nimal dunuhinga

The Dead Souls Stopped For A While At The Fairgrounds



The flower children throw popcorn
To the birds in an amusement park
And a Preacher with a hat
Screams to the stampede crowd.
'The World's end is coming soon! '
And a homeless is sleeping on a bench
Dreams how to get a Bank Loan
If everything is going to be finished?
The long hair Polaroid cameraman in blue jeans
Who took a photograph of the old couple with their walking sticks
And gave them the snap when it's almost dried.
The faces became a full blown love affair!
And really in doubt the photographer
The given hundred dollar bill is a fake.
He looks around in furor
And the old couple hand-in-hand
Their dress already changed
And they're walking towards
The nearby burial grounds!

* 'The best and most beautiful things in the World cannot be seen or even touched.They must be felt with the heart.' - Helen Keller
