No Sadder Day

On a Friday when the world was sad
We had, all of us, knelt down to pray
That nothing further would come out
We’d wish then for no sadder day
The next day that would come to us
Would be one that's two days away
A day filled with, faith and prayer
As we would skip that Saturday

A beautifully written poem that immediately fills the reader with a need to pause and reflect for a spontaneous minute's silence. Love, Nigel
