Poem Title:
Poem
(07/05/11) She had been acquitted by a jury of her peers Amongst anger, hatred, bitterness and fear. 95% of the public know in their hearts That this child s life was torn apart. Circumstantial evidence and hearsay Helped this woman to get away. Where is the justice for her little girl A gem, a diamond, a beautiful pearl. Claims that her daughter drowned in the pool Making the jurors the biggest fools. A search for chloroform on the internet And it gets better yet. Chloroform residue and duct tape Found in the car- the same that was found on little Cay lee. 2 plus 2 -that the jury could not see Leaves this case a mystery. So many questions and doubts in my mind But she got away with it- she did fine. CAY LEE So these words are for the spirit of cay lee May she finally find peace, love and harmony. Cay lee is our child although short lived But this world has a love for you More than your mother could ever give. You have captured the hearts of this nation Amongst the bickering and devastation. Lies have been told- and stories have been changed While you laid in a cold covered grave. Your beautiful face and beautiful smile Will be with us for quite a while. But you are one of GODS cherubs No more living in fear or gloom. You have such beautiful wings For this is the first thing that the angels did bring. You can fly above the ground- and see all The love as you look down. Every heart has a place for you And we will miss you - this much is true. But you are now with GOD above And you will have overflowing love.
