Mike Grant Poet I do not know?

Paradise

Paradise is lost to never return
All we could do is watch it burn
The helpless feeling we felt inside 
The sorrow we felt as families died
The hope we have that people survived 
God opened his arms to countless souls
Now comes the task of sifting through the coals
All we can do is kneel and pray
And hope these families have somewhere to stay
The way this fire started is really strange
Management control has got to change

Caren Krutsinger November 17, 2018 at 11:11 PM A timely poem, that says we really need to think about what is happening, and the only thing we can do is pray. Mike Grant November 18, 2018 at 7:26 AM I feel the same way Karen thanks for the comment.
