A holiday in shambles

We gathered beneath the sun\'s warm rays,

Excitement buzzing, joyous days,

A family reunion, long overdue,

A time to reconnect, and make anew.

 

But fate, it seemed it had other plans,

A cruel twist, a devastating hand,

A car crash, a scream, a shattered dream,

Two precious lives, lost in a heartbeat\'s scheme.

 

Our siblings, dear, with futures bright,

Gone in an instant, without a fight,

The holiday cheer, now turned to pain,

A darkness fell, a sorrowful refrain.

 

The laughter ceased, the smiles faded away,

As grief and shock, took their place to stay,

The sun hid its face, the sky turned gray,

A somber mood, a heart-wrenching day.

 

We weep and wail, in disbelief and pain,

Our joyous gathering, now a sorrowful refrain,

A holiday, that turned to ashes cold,

A memory, forever to be told.
