Sound Bank Challenge Poem

There’s Something Off About Today

A deathly aura cradled the droopy day

Snow banks piled endlessly along the curbs

Children unearthed hidden monikers in yards

And decorated the town with faux angels

I thought topaz halos would complete the scene.

Chilled oxygen meandered the quieted streets

And ignited long forgotten memories –

In hindsight, I shouldn’t have worn white today.
