Our Two Sons Back

Our Two Sons Back Was not long ago when they were missing And am finding it difficult to be resisting Blaming myself for all that has been done And happened to each precious dear son. These were the only ones we ever had May stay up nights and days feeling so sad For what has occurred to two children of ours And now pray to God with all His powers. How could God let this happen to me Both our children completely missing at sea While we here at home worry selves to death And mention our dissension under our breath. What we did was to stay up night and day And discussing with God all of our dismay What possibly could ever have gone wrong? To two young boys both brave and strong. Shall say Amen over and over gain and again After asking for forgiveness for our each sin And with God's help we hope to remain intact Asking Him to please bring out two sons back.

We lost a son when he was 32. It was horrible. Also wrote two other poems about it. Jim Horn
