The Locusts

A giant cloud to shroud the sun
A vast and hungry swarm
It flies and hops, devours crops
An unforgiving storm
It leaps in heaps through greenest fields
and leaves no leaf behind
Turns farm to plain as quick as flame
with no green left to find
The wind will send this awful plague
at random so it seems
And where it stops, it takes the crops
and all else that it sees
A giant swarm, a locust storm
to ravage all it sees

I like the rhythm that you are experimenting with here. It is difficult to convey thoughts in musical sync AND rhyme simultaneously.
You have succeeded very well.
I look forward to following your writing.
