(Written in 7th grade... )
I went to the window for some fresh air,
And was shocked to see the land below bare!
I rushed down for a better look,
There were no trees till the far street nook.
I saw telephone wires in their place,
A row of lives, put out at rapid pace.
I walked gloomily back to the balcony,
My heart shocked and filled with agony.
Years to grow, minutes to cut down,
Cruel world I thought, my face a frown
I stood there clinging to the railing grill
The world suddenly seemed very cold and still..
