Followed by the HAILSTORM

Composed by: Ashma Aryal (a.k.a. Azm)

Hailstorm that broke throughYet over within a tick of the clock;Out swam children to collect a fewNone aware the poor birdie was stuck;
They tried to capture the scene in lensThe dazzling flashes thanking the scienceA while past the change appearedLumps of ice into water had turned
Picture taken was crystal clearThe injured bird hit hard by the hailIn the back yard it laid. Alas! Left thereThe path through heaven it’d sailMournful faces wished the clock’d struck a bit slowThe poor birdie could be healed; it wouldn’t have to go
