Poem
He came with murderous intent To the Manchester Arena he went His heart full of vitriol and hate With a bomb to seal their fate I wonder if he thought at all About the kids that there would fall I don't believe in his hate filled brain He thought about the grief and pain They came to laugh and dance and sing To see their idol was their thing When young you have no fear of death No thought of taking your last breath That mindless man took their lives Left grieving parents, husbands, wives He took their lives but not our hope Because we have learned to cope We aren't beaten we aren't cowed We are unbroken we wont be bowed He made us determined strengthened too We wont give up we will pull through May the spirit of Manchester live in us all We will stand firm we will stand tall So send your bombs we aren't afraid We aren't beat down we aren't dismayed We will not hear your futile threats You will not leave us with regrets So bring it on let the war begin Its already lost you will not win Now they've come to London town On London Bridge they mowed them down Seven more innocent lives they shed Eight minutes later they too were dead Lets not forget the Westminster one Lets not forget what he has done Though he inflicted grief and pain He died for nothing he died in vain Manchester, Paris, London too We stand together to defy you One day you'll realise its too late You wont infect us with your hate Denis Briggs May 2017
