The Fire

It was just a simple summer day

While most were away

when he turned on the stove

The fire ate Colegrove

when he pushed and shoved

it destroyed everything he loved

until the next day when most weren't away

and everyone sang

Whistle one day away

and then you convey

while the tragedy will be known the next day

and while the skies turn grey

his family turns away

without love or sorrow

they live tomorrow

like nothing happened that Saturday.

END?
