Firestorm

God, where is thy hand?
Too many have died;
How many have cried,
Because of bloodshed?
Should man's innocence,
Be blessed,
With a death sentence?
I'm ready for the end,
Of needless punishment.

Well said, Honestly JT. At least death is not the end, but there will be an end to needless punishment, which is our hope and comfort. Great verse, and thanks for the comment. Viv

Oh JT...This is so so true and so sad. The innocent always pay for the evil of the wicked. Fantastic write. He sees and knows. A better day is coming. hugs
