MY CRESTFALLEN NIGHT

A pleasant flow

Was diving into the Weddell Sea,

Wandering among creatures of species

I didn't know.

My dream ended too early.

Such a tragic smite!

Out of the window shone a faint light.

I glanced outside and saw,

Along with me, it was the moon shining with a dim glow.

What a misery!

A chance missed to freeze the sky.

I recalled the story of Henny Penny;

Annoyed I thought, "Why isn't the sky falling?"

My Evil replied, "Not so soon, darling!"

Then came a cool breeze.

I looked at the clouds,

They appeared like munchies.

So I decided to pay tribute to my incomplete dream.

I went to the rooftop and had a burrito with jelly and cheese.
