Yesterday

The blue sky is clear in the sun's rays
Showing places beauty without any delay
Amongst the fields, children would play
My world was a wonderful site yesterday

The ocean, kind to the beaches and bays
Red fires burn brightly, a gentle blaze
Bringing this world a  dream-like phase
My world was a wonderful site yesterday

But as time goes on we start a new gaze
And what our eyes show will truly amaze
Because over time our views will change
Revealing a dreadful truth for this day

Now all that is shown is hate and decay
The sun and its radiance have gone away
The blues and greens have faded to gray
It seems this is how our world is today            

Author's Notes:

Finding a font to present this piece as such was rather difficult, but the last one does it fine without ruining the text too much.

I'm rather fond of how this turned out. It's easy on the eyes, if not a little square, but how often do you see a piece that formats as such? Also, the message behind the piece could also be seen as how everything now must be so strict, like how the poem looks.

Please enjoy reading.

	A very somber work. The transition is good between the past and present, let's just hope there is still some pleasant in today. Brian Respond To This Comment
