Prayers For Damar Hamlin Buffalo Bills Player

Watching a Buffalo Bills game Last night.
I was shocked to see a player down!
Lying on his back, to our surprise!
 We hoped, You get up from the ground.
It was more serious then we knew.
 As you were fighting for your life.
As the Nation prayed for you.
Praying you would live, not die.
 Two opposing teams stopped and prayed.
Never witnessed on a football field.
 Compassion and love were shown that day.
As Humanities finest hour, was revealed.


Michael Tor
Since his injury his Toys for Kids
Charity has received Six million
dollars more and is growing
at 6000 dollars an hour.
Please pray for Damar Hamlin
he suffered a serious injury
playing football for the Buffalo
Bills against the Cincinnati Bengals.

I Am Anaya January 9, 2023 at 6:24 PM That's amazing, Americans are most generous and always have been giving to charities. I know that Damar H. is healing, they took out the tubes and that's the good news, the bad news is that there will not be a game against the Bangals. Eres sympatico, Michael Michael Tor January 10, 2023 at 9:23 AM Gracia Anaya. Tu palabras son importante. Anaya I did not know you spoke Spanish. Very impressed. Hope you have un mejor ano. Con mucho amor Michael Rene...

Paulette Calasibetta January 4, 2023 at 5:20 AM Michael, your words fill the picture of what happened that day.....the depth of sadness unmeasurable. Thank you for writing this! Paulette Michael Tor January 4, 2023 at 8:40 PM It was nice to see you and I always enjoy reading your Poetry. Blessings for the New Year... Michael Tor January 4, 2023 at 8:38 PM Your welcome. I was touched by watching this poor young man fight for his life at 24 years of age. His mom had to watch her son cling to his life and be brought back to life. I can not imagine what she went through. His toy charity has raised from 2500 when he started it to 7 million dollars on his behalf.

Sotto Poet January 3, 2023 at 1:53 PM I pray that he has a speedy and full recovery. Michael, it is incredibly difficult to watch somebody you worry about getting hurt. Michael Tor January 3, 2023 at 10:04 PM It is Lasaad. His mother watched from the stands. Can't imagine how she felt watching her son cling to life...

Panagiota Romios January 3, 2023 at 12:01 PM I understand how you feel …but who will fund the 735 families in Chicago who lost family? Or the deaths from Fentanyl, that took many from us. Stars can raise cash? I would raise money to block borders . But then, I am no star!)) I got the point of your poem, Michael and your feelings Respect and love, Panagiota Michael Tor January 3, 2023 at 10:10 PM You mentioned all these unfortunate tragedies that are all horrible and bad. We should all take a stand and contribute to helping these families and putting pressure on our elected officials to do something about it.Damar the player who is cling to his life started a toy Charity and raise three million dollars to give toys to the poor children. Since his tragedy which is three days people have donated three million dollars for his cause of providing a toy for a child during the holidays. He gives back to his community and has made a difference in this hellbound world we live in. Thank you for your comment Pangie I feel your frustration...

Tom Cunningham January 3, 2023 at 7:17 AM Hope he makes a good recovery Michael, it hits you hard to actually see someone suffer an injury. Tom Michael Tor January 3, 2023 at 7:31 AM It really does Tom I have never see them call off an NFL game over an injury. This was a great gesture on their part and it was incredible to see the apposing team kneel in prayer for Damar as he was fighting for his life. One of the greatest acts of humanity to witness. It gives you hope in mankind. Our prayers Tom for Damar I am asking for from my fellow Soupers. Thank you Tom for your thoughtful comment as always...

Victor Buhagiar January 3, 2023 at 2:36 AM A heartfelt prayer. I am fed up seeing rough players on the field injuring others. Players must be careful. Hope he will recover. Michael Tor January 3, 2023 at 7:27 AM I hope so to Victor. It is so sad this happened. It is a tough game and there is no way to control it. Thanks your input Victor sadly it is a risk they take when they play football. Thanks for stopping by my friend.
