How many skeletons rest below the shores?
all over the globe?
How many are there?
How many booby-trap holes remain in them?
War Zone meadows?
How many are there?
How many little paws slumber in
Africa's thickets?
How many are there?
How many veils are raised to mislead the entire world?
Have they made amends?
How many are there?
How many ember strands sail the
Winter winds from the north?
How many are there?
How many teardrops are still falling to the ground?
among all nations?
How many are there?
How many osmosis lessons does it take to prevent
The next beginning of the end?
How many are there?
How many talks and acts of kindness were there?
Before emotional pain can heal,
How many are there?
How often does the school's skeleton whistle?
Wind wraps each bone.
How many are there?
How many voices did they hear among the voices of life?
Comatose children were chain-ganged.
How many are there?
How many storks nest as towers fall during a war?
And towns have vanished?
How many are there?
How many deer lose their food when tanks move?
Overly lush meadows of tender new plants?
How many are there?
