Janice Canerdy Poet Acrostic

Pandemonium

Peril lurks around our children
			As they play and walk to school.
			Nighttime's goblins have a rival;
			Daytime's just as bad a ghoul.
			Evil's names are myriad,
			Murderer and terrorist;
			Others--racist, rapist, hater . . . 
			Neverending is the list.
			In this time of chaos rife,
			Unrelenting fear and strife, 
			My prayers are for a peaceful life.
