California's Newest Angel In Heaven

He was here just yesterday walking on Gilroy, California's fresh, green grass. Now, Stephen Romero, only six, sings in an eternal, angelic, glorious Mass! July 29, 2019 11:30am PST

Panagiota, your poignant pen expressed a touching tribute to a beautiful young boy caught in the ugliest of circumstances. Out of this senseless tragedy was born a new angel for the Heavens. We will remember him. Warmest wishes always my friend.. ~Susan

Yes,and now going after Police in Philly? These sick minds need healing Dr Pinsky is right. Only a sick person in the head does this. There have been more mass shootings since this poem. Shootings, individual or in numbers remind us that killings can be done by any means. Knives, trucks..9/11. We forgot that one! Panagiota
