Boulder, Colorado Massacre

Like leaves caught in wind, Souls flew up into heaven. Those left on earth,wept! But others were from earth, freed. Their pets wondering where they were. The lovely snow capped mountains saw all this. The trees shook and wept in sadness. Whilst the melting snow formed tears that ran. Our confused hearts do ache for innocence lost. 3/22/2021 ~3~ ~Tribute to ten lost souls~

Hello Panagiota, oh that was a horrible thing to happen. Was the killer caught? It is always the wrong people getting the blame. Yes may they all rest in peace. Hugs Darlene xx

Robert, thank you! Not all the truth is being told about the killer. But that's how the news works. People worldwide need the truth, but no! It's swept under the rug. Making us all less safe. Worse, blaming the wrong people. In the end, we suffer for the skewed news pouring into our ears. Pangie xx I didn't want to drag that into the Poem. May they all, rest in piece

You described that horrible situation accurately, Pangie. Another nut on the loose. It saddened me to hear that a police officer was shot and left behind his wife and 7 children. Boulder is one of the most liberal cities in the U.S. Always problems with well-heeled kids raising hell.

After the carnage, wonder why he did it? Ruins so many families. Am hip to liberal, well heeled kids. Tons here in CA... Keep me up to date. Chicago outdoes Colorado in shootings with the toughest gun laws. But that's OK. Chicago is murder city, USA. You can buy a gun on the street, cheap. A good family, God a commandment keeping does a lot More than gun control. Chicago is proof. Kids get burnt in garbage cans. Liberal press says NOTHING. VERY SAD PANGIE Pangie

Shocking just saw that on the news. A policeman was killed in the line of duty. May he and the other victims rest in peace. Tom

A tragedy Tom! The policeman leaves behind a wife and seven children. The age range of the deceased is huge! The killer is of Syrian descent but has lived here all his life. Sounds like a revenge killing to me. Will let you know. Pangie
