Emergency! ~ A Poem
In the darkness comes the sirens
From the window I hear the sound
An urgent call for emergency
A life in peril, they have found.
I stop for a minute and pray for mercy
Give them comfort in their time of woe
Physical pain or house up in flames
I'm not sure where the sirens will go.
The commotion is fading far in the distance
I hope they reach the troubled soon
Mere seconds matter in times like these
Life or death playing out under the moon.
The scream of horns have stopped now
On the scene, they must have arrived
I wish for safety and peace tonight
Bless those angels of mercy and the help they provide.
