The Rug of Life


by Ashley Marshall (14)

Sounds of grieving
Forever weaving
The wounded rug of life
Threads of love
Colored bright
Threads of death
Drained of light
Tread upon by generations
Worn thin and shallow
By careless nations
Forever damaged
By war and hate
A forgotten carpet
Created by fate.
