Sense Sonnet - Chiller

Skeleton Lake

High in the Himalayas be
The Roopkund Lake which became known
As Skeleton Lake -  mystery,
Filled with thousands of human bone.
From dif'rent times the bones do date,
But all from centuries ago.
The best guess of a common fate -
All killed by a heavenly blow.
Traveling by the mountain lake,
Humans were caught while on the trail,
With nothing there for shelter's sake,
And were struck down by pounding hail.

Travelers near should keep an eye
On whether weather's in the sky.
