Death

by Kaytlen Swanson, age 11

The enemy of eternal youth
The villain of every child
The cold air on the earth each day
that frequently runs wild
It casts the smell of sulfur
on every marble stone
Twelve o'clock each midnight
the evil leaves it's throne
At two o'clock each morning
The spirits go back home
Ready to conquer the following day
Ready to frighten in a horrible wayThe enemy of eternal youth
The villain of every child
The cold air on the earth each day
that frequently runs wild
It casts the smell of sulfur
on every marble stone
Twelve o'clock each midnight
the evil leaves it's throne
At two o'clock each morning
The spirits go back home
Ready to conquer the following day
Ready to frighten in a horrible way
