Angel

Angel

Gossamer feather on shoulder bare

Intricate halo adorn shiny hair

Watching the tide of mortalities wake

Children suffering in heartbreak

Come soft to carry home

Souls shattered cold as stone

Whisper sweet atone for the dead

Dry the eyes of tears bled

War is bitter and callous

Teeming with hate and malice

Brave sweet angel of grace

Deny not a guardian’s embrace

Shelter the innocence lost

Misplaced humanity a high cost

Gather the children bestow wings

Let them know what prayer brings

Hello Lisa...

It's difficult to grasp all the tragedy to our little ones...

It's sad to see the children who are made to carry out death and destruction too...

It's terribleΒ when adults need the assistance of a child to destroy...

My heart goes out to all the innocent people...

Beautiful write!Β 

Thank you for sharing...

Hugs...

Hi Lisa,

Let them not be the "children of a lesser God". Β Let Him send down the all encompassing Angels, who will spread their wings and protect our children from the evils of humanity.

Hugs, Peace and Love,
