Innocent Hearts

Poet:  Ken Jordan 
Poem:  Innocent Hearts 
Edited by:  Sparkle Jordan 
written:  March/2018


O’ Bitter World 

         malice abound

Small hearts bleed
         dying all around 

Little souls gone
         call heaven home

Families left weeping
          mourning all alone.

O’ Cruel World 

No child is safe -
           School, Work or Play -

Protection is lost
           Day by day -

O’ Bitter Earth -

We’re living 
            In “Grieving Towns,”

WarZone destruction 
            On campus grounds.....

When will it end?

Man; his guns
             Will strike again -
