A day of death and fiery rain

Leon Schrecongost 1977 (Thornton)



A Day Of Death And Firey Rain.

By Leon George Schrecongost

On that day,the devil himself came to a
place of peace where freedom rings.
A deadly clash of lengthy fire,death,destruction,sorrow and pain.
On that day,normal and routine,nobody
expected what evil would bring.
Peace and freedom was violated that day.
The sounds of thunder as the eagle
soard,the sounds of US fighting a war!
ON that day,satan tried to drive peace
away,only to find US there the very next
day!
