The Siren

It howls It screechs
it mauls the ears
not like its "namesake"
the Siren of the Odyssey.
It truly denotes "help":
The dogs duly yelp.
Somebody is dying,
someone is near the end.
So if you hear this wail
You are still full sail.
It howls. It screechs
It penetrates your soul.

On listening to the siren in a little village in France.
The siren will alert the Firemen/Ambulance
and you will know it is serious.
