PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

It rained all the days of a fellow man's life

a six barrel wedding,no pictures in light

and the day that he died the sun did arise

to chase away tears from nobody's eyes

a bottle of whiskey was a breakfast he met

sent from his mother's heart to a son she'd regret

a father left wild in the bars through his years

like the scars on his face left behind from his tears

and when he was born the preachers they did cry

for they saw there was no hope for this boy alive

so when he died all was dropped at his grave

no flowers or weeping, all saved for a better day

laughter rang out the day that he passed on

for alas,lay the body of no one's son
