Huge fields of lilies, dewy, sun-kissed
If a pin dropped in the grass, it couldn’t be missed
The picturesque landscape is beautiful yet sad
In looks it’s full, but in spirit, there’s much to be had
Decades and decades it must have been
Since there was anyone ever to be seen
The flora it remains, but the fauna has left
Years ago the damage, ‘twas deft
Nagasaki, and her sister Hiroshima, do they ring a bell
Those past mistakes on which few abroad wish to dwell
That war, the damage it did cause
In world peace an unwelcome pause
Nice
