When Bullies Cry

One two three four five six seven

Not all children go to heaven

Right is right and bad is wrong

Jack fell down and broke his crown


One two  three Four  five six seven

School is out  it's half past eleven

Jack shot off his gun

Staff and students had to run


One two three four five Six seven

Who took bullet aimed at Helen

Principle called police

Parents paid the judge bail fee


One two three four Five  at sixty seven

Jack's in jail in old San Quentin 

Bible verse spread out in hand

Regrets killing a preacher man


When bullies cry... You have to wonder why...

Children and adults having to deal with these types of situations in school...very sad. Well-written.

Hello Arturo … unfortunately bullies attack those that they believe are weaker to make them appear strong. However, when they discover that the law is more powerful than any individual and their deeds, the tears flow - thank you Arturo - Lindsay

Arturo, I always think that a bully is a coward and if confronted will cry like a baby ~

Often they will cry to make you feel sorry for them. Trouble is people are basically who and what they are. They seldom change for the better. A really fine piece and very well thought out. Good job. God Bless, JB

Good one attacking a horrible plight of the world, bullying. Cyber bullying is even worse in some ways.

- A week ago, a woman was killed with an ax ... by a young man - when she visits the family's tomb, here in my nearest town ...

- There were bullies in my youth too ... but the violence is completely different today ... children who kill ... where does it come from ... environment ... an overly busy everyday ... press ... mix of cultures ... parent ... lack of respect ... or love ... it's so sad - They have every reason to cry ... they must live with these memories - A GREAT poem + and video ! - hugs // Anne-Lise :)
