SEPTEMBER 21ST





Deep in the soul, 
   lies the spirit of all those we loved.  
taken from us by an unkind heart,
a human like you and I,
Pulled the trigger on a fellow human,
From old to young,
None was spared.

Tears flow freely,
    drowning amidst sorrow of yesterdays
where the grass remained splendor
 the smiles  so genuine,
the love so true,
peace reigned within our borders.

Now clear waters of recollection
 After the pain of September 28th,
Lost in thoughts,
Reminiscing our days with loved ones,
The voice of the radio presenter,
The laughter’s and cries of the young ones….
Now gone…never to grace us with their love one more time,
         
In this whirling disarray of thoughts
  We never forget the fluttering of loss.
The dried tears on our cheeks,
With scars so deep, we don’t know how to pray.

Tightly we hug each other,
Thanking God the night mare is over.
Today is a better day.
Justice will prevail.
