THE GRENFELL TOWER FIRE (A TRAGEDY)
Great Britain is not great,
in fact its falling apart
the powers that be,our government
has no beating heart.
Our prime minister is known for her coldness,
arrogance she portrays
she`s continued to bleat on about austerity,
and for that, the poor has payed
This week a tower block in London,
in no time went up in flames.
There are many dead and injured,
that fire.could no way, be contained
Blame is being laid on cheap building materials,
cutting corners to save a penny.
fire regulations preposterous,these bad choice,s
have caused the deaths, of many.
Now the people who escaped are left homeless, bereft,
and they have nothing to their name
They have lost their sons, daughters, parents,
those powers that be,should hold their heads in shame.
To watch people screaming at windows,
mothers throwing their babies from way up high
Seeing these sights were horrific,
with head in hands,all I could do, was cry
But thank God for human kindness,
people have come together,helping with food and aide
No matter what religion, no matter what creed or color
unity and love are being displayed
It is the basis of human nature to try to comfort,to help,
to ease the burdon, of other peoples pain
Nevermind our diabolic government, or our cold hearted prime minster
Karma I think, will be theirs someday....
To the survivors of Grenfell Tower Kensington London
My heart goes out to you, I hope you get all that, you need
I am so sorry for the loss of your loved ones cruelly taken.
May They Rest in Peace.

Hi Tony Thank you for these lovely comments
These tragic events affect me so much
I need to write how I feel and show how much I care
I wrote about our prime minister because she has nt showed
empathy to the survivors of this fire,she never went and met them
even our queen visited.
she spoke to the survivors and to the many people who are
helping ease their needs
Thank you Again my friend
Love n hugs Debs xo

handled this tragedy

Hi Deb, It's a big question if Great Britain would be great again #the arrogance, corruption, and the laxity of those in power ##Justice to the victims ## I feel sorry for them ## May their souls rest in peace, and I pray that those who survived be given all the help they need and deserve.
hugs and kisses
Happy Father's day
Hi Leah I don`t think Britain will be great With Theresa May
leading our country things should be moving quicker for these
people who have been left homeless and with nothing
I agree wholeheartedly Justice to the victims and survivors
Thank you for your heartfelt words
Hugs to you Debs x
My Dear Debs,
Your powerful poem moved me to tears. It has inspired me to write one of my own called "From The Ashes Came The Angels", which I have just posted. I am so sorry for this added tragedy that has befallen your country. Thank you for your soul searching words.
Hugs, Peace and Love,
