POEM: The Scarecrow Dies by Alun Buffry

 The Scarecrow Dies

by Alun Buffry
December 2021

 

A storm outside

Where fear abides

The thunder claps

The lightning zaps

The scarecrows in the fields.



Inside is calm,

Peaceful and warm,

It feels of love,

Soft Light above

The scarecrows finally yield.



Throughout ones life,

We all feel strife,

Darkness and confusion,

Amidst the world’s illusion

With which we daily deal.



But please don’t cry,

One day we’ll die,

Life is for here and now,

The scarecrows will all bow,

As life is but a wheel.



The scarecrows are the sinners.

The lovers are the winners.

As hatred outside dies,

And peace inside will fly,

And gratitude we’ll feel.
