At The End

The Year 3000 (VioletEden) wk 1

The Year 3000

"all wars have come to an end"

started the old woman

"every sky turned a bright blue,

every tree learnt to be green too,

it was a scene unfolding

in various shades of orange

the shades got darker tenfold

as the children began to munch

(on crunchy gems of joy

like they knew not it existed)

I was a tiny little bird called Lead

fluttering above these tiny heads

humming the tune of felicity

dancing in the wind

the air I breathed

so tender like leaves of mint

my bones light

and my eyes bright,

every nook and corner

filled with smiling faces

and smiling tears

the sweetness alight in all the places

the heart and the mind

in that moment

touching hands

and being sincerely kind

I prayed for my babies in the nest,

"may this be the start of permanence

may this be the present for my loves!"

all wars had come to an end,

and here is peace for you,at last,"

she smiled at her grandchildren.
