The Preciousness of a Human Life

When we consider all the tragedies
that occurred in WW2 so very terrible
especially the loss of the Jewish people
so many so innocent utterly horrible

It beggars belief when we stop and think
consider the evil deeds on the innocent
everyone is equally human in the sight of God
morally distasteful, never thought it imminent

Every human life should be precious
for everyone whether rich or poor
every baby born is indeed a miracle 
consider this for evil minds needs a cure

Be doing all you humanly can
that WW2 atrocities never to repeat
treat everyone with true respect
each deserves that for a first-class seat

(Just thinking of the atrocities of World War 2 in the evil done to the Jewish people young and old, pray that it wouldn't happen ever again.)

Unfortunately no-one is born innocent, for the sins of the fathers, the children will suffer. The atrocities in WW11 were inhumane, God knows! Blessings and hugs, jennifer
