The Protector

The Protector
 
The beauty lies beneath the catastrophe, a casualty our life does not have to be 

Anger, fear and grudge, taking it out on innocent people, only God can judge 


As the smoke wans, as the dust settles, a blanket of hope lays solitaire 

beneath the ashes and rubble, there she lay wrapped tight as if she were in a

cocoon 


Unharmed and untouched, the blankets protected the young 

as if she were in the womb
