We Weep Together In the Rain - Pick Any Line Contest

The inhumanities of others  brings tears  to our eyes Watching the scenes on the screen  When the newscaster is wanting to cry Children crying in torment In pain reaching out for aid Suffering not in silence for what  price have they  paid We weep together in the rain Each to their own shower to cry same prayers, same shame of humanity Same torment  in our eyes We are tormented because we cant Useless because we would Politician we can  chivvy Make peace, if only  we could We weep together in the rain - my Katherine from Wales -by Arthur Vasso Penned by Seren Roberts

I love your thoughts on peace, if only it would come to be real, that would be wonderful! But the pain is real right now, the suffering of war is so great it's hard to look at it all! I really loved reading this enlightening poem this evening! What a brilliant piece, Great Work!!
