The Song
The Song Of The Family -
Spears of light on the wall,
An explosion of fire as the sun rises,
The smell of corncakes cooking,
Safety, warmth, the whole.

The Song Of Evil –
Rage, fear, anger, terror.
Drowning the yellow sunlight in darkness,
Smothering The Song Of The Family;
The Song Of The Enemy.

The Song Of The Undersea –
Crabs bubbling in holes in the golden sand,
Hazy sun filtering to the seabed,
Sprinkling shells with sparkling dust;
Singing with The Song Of The Pearl That Might Be.

A/N: Woot, school assigned poetry. Gotta love it .. Anywho, this won't
make much sense unless you've read the book. Ah well.
