In memory of Father Jacques Hamel

Like 1 Pin it 0Today Father killed
By neck slit
In France
In red blood
For whom
The bells toll
~~~~~~~~~
Lord; this river
Is blood
And this man,
A beautiful priest
In heaven rest his soul
Our hearts mourn forever
~~~~~~~~~
Upon this altar
Hallow be thy name
Thy will be done
The God of life shall overcome
To save the innocent from murder
~~~~~~~~~
To sadness
In memory of
Father Jacques Hamel
A man of God
Who brought God
Lest we Forget

Hey JAI MASTERS!!!....I LOVE the way you chose carefully here........ in the near cliche' phrasing to bring out the fact that he was a priest........a priest struck down on hallowed ground......a VERY well conceived & beautifully delivered tribute....... and an AWESOME reminder to us ALL....... that the insipid can be found anywhere....... beautiful in ALL of its aspects brother poet!!........ALL STARS...... love the strength of your ink JAI MASTERS!!......... Love and Rockets!!........T xo
I don't know what I did here Tony
i just feel for the agony of an elderly man
who was religious and died for it; by some
idiot who was manipulated. The assailant
was apparently under house arrest etc;
I think it's bloody awful and have no
words left, just raw emotion
awful murder. Thank you your comments are wholesome food for the soul. Luv Jai:)
