Blue Sky, Why
"Blue Sky, Why?"
stories speak to us.
inside our heart
is crying.
Blue Sky, Why?
why do children
holding sunflowers
watch their parents die
why do sweet children,
now war torn,
some the battle's orphans,
daily lose their lives
lying in their sick beds
bombed in...

Kneeling on pearls
wisdom preys
praying

wasting away
in all that preying
for prayers

children become
strangers
reading
strange words
finding
themselves puzzled
genuflecting to a deity
they do not know, nor wish to

mouths closed,
swallowed hole

Toss this poem aside
