The Unsolved Scream
Naomi, 6th Grade
Looking out my window pane
On a foggy day,
Staring through the clouds and rain
Unusual for May.
A scream pierces through the fog
And the quiet town,
At first I think it’s just a dog
That sits upon the ground.
I hurry down the silent street
Hear the wind’s refrain
My colleague I am soon to meet,
No life is in the rain.
I pace and wonder when he’ll come
The answer I can’t find
But I shall never hide and run,
The answer’s in my mind.
