________________________________

God has them in his arms all the children and their heroes oh, the tragedy of New town my heart is broken . . . I weep and pray for the little ones and those who died with them even those who survived each day a reliving pain . . . Mourned throughout the world the grief and suffering unbearable it is so hard to fathom the evil my heart is bleeding tears . . . All those babies and the adults safe within Heavens gate now each with delicate and beautiful wings angels shining bright . . . I pray for their families and friends there is no answer to the question why you can ask forever and never know this existence borrowed time . . . God, is our world so hopeless and evil that our babies must die, needlessly and those who try to protect them oh, dry your glistening tears . . . ____________________________________ December 23, 2012 Poetry/Verse/Oh, Dry Your Glistening Tears Copyright Protected, ID 12-1225-099-0 All Rights Reserved.
