Notes About The Poem

How Many and How Long

H ow many senseless murders
O rphans left by acts of war
W hich man will next receive orders
M aybe the world is tired of the gore
A nswer me if you can, is murder right
N ow tell, should fetuses be swept away
Y ou think because they'll your plight

A nd how long will God put up with man
N ow don't you think He's had enough
D o you think hundreds of murders each night His plan
H onestly don't you think we need to be ready
O pen our hearts to His love
W ithout the Holy Spirit our lives unsteady
L onging for something missing, that being the Holy Dove
O ptimistic or pessimistic analyze these words
N o! God is not happy with His highest creation
G hee, He still loves His birds!    

God still loves mankind, but He wants mankind to love Him and each other.

Sara, I couldn't agree with you more. You have my prayers since you are concerned about the victims. There is no question that evil is all over this world.

Michael, Thank you for the kind review of my work. I appreciate you dropping by. I saw how they were forcing young men to go to war against Ukraine and I know many of them will not come back home. They are being forced to do something they don't want to do or believe in doing. Sara
