The Burning Gardens of Babylon
Green flourishes through the tower,
scents of lavender and colors as bright as the sun…
fresh water flows, reflecting glistening strands of light.
Marching steps and clanging metal.
The stone walls rumble.
The trees shake and tremble in fear…
the water ripples while the earth begins to quake.
Marching steps and clanging metal.
A wall falls to pieces.
They pour in like rushing water…
the orange flame ignites the garden into a blaze.
Marching steps and clanging metal.
Charred like dust, trees fall
a single flower lay crushed under the rubble…
The color and life was replaced by black and death.
Marching steps clanging metal.
