The Day The Earth Stood Still Poem by Breanna Schwartz

The Day The Earth Stood Still



No birds sang
No animals cried
No people cheered
No people died

Nothing happened
Not one thing
Not even one church bell
Let out a ring

There was no wind
There was no sound
There was no heartbeat
On the ground

There was no heaven
There was no hell
There were no angels
Or demons casting spells

There was no hate
There was no love
There were no doves
Flying above

Never again
Will this day arise
So lets take a moment
To wonder in surprise

This was the day the earth stood still

A splendid void of being clear of definitons. Great writing, unfortunately just still air before a storm.
