Mourning the Little Angels of Connecticut

Mourning the Little Angels of Connecticut



What a tragedy for all of us humans
To watch malice harvesting your youth                 
The noblest thing humanity can offer       
To the everlasting universal truth                                     

What an ecstasy for heavens above 
As their gates open wide with glee
To welcome you our little angels
Into their glorious eternity!
