NaPoWriMo 2017 Day Twenty Two

DAY TWENTY TWO

NOBODY CRIED

The day the messages dried up

The site went down and the pigeon died

Nobody cried they just took it all in their stride

One giant leap for mankind one small step for man

But perhaps a bridge too far

Fantastic but fun like the funfair was

In nineteen sixty-one before anyone

Had ever heard of The Beatles

Ain’t She Sweet and all that rock ‘n’ roll

That was about to come

Of course rock ‘n’ roll wasn’t new

Look at Elvis and Chuck Berry

To name a couple or should that be a phew

Anyway don’t you just love live music

And the hand jive and all that jazz

And whatever happened to The Who

Not the doctor - who’s there - knock knock

And all that silly twaddle but the band

Not the banned - that’s probably The Stones

Or The Rolling stones that you’re thinking about

Or possibly the dammed hell fire and damnation

That’s where we’re all heading if we don’t buckle up

And/or knuckle down soon

But of course there’s nothing we can do about it

Of ourselves we just have to trust in Him

That has done it for us and secured our salvation
