Anne Frank


See how the blue skies smile
Watch the sun fall beneath the cliff
Greet Le Chambon when you pass by
Thank all for their humanity, corn and beef

I wonder why the Vegetations are green
And all beautiful beans are green
And should our hearts be black then?
There’s no whit of sense in it

Strange- lest I forget dear memory
Say hello to my friend fighting in the ranks
Thoughts of you hiding, adventures of dirt and granaries
For those who treat you a little lesser than pork

I wonder why the world is so cruel
Why man has become an agent to Death
Why Evil kills many- man, beast, trees and wildlife
Why we hate each other for nothings gain

How long is it, humans to self destruct
In fields of sweet-smelling green grasses
Even when the air is free and calm
And let the streams nearby wash our blood and greases?

I wonder why Anne Frank loved it though she was hated
Why beautiful lives are traded for nothing
Why there are many guns in peoples hands and hearts
And I hope that one day, I will find Love.
