Where Angels Fear To Tread

Where angels fear to tread; And cowards never go. Is where I wish to head. With those I wish to know. Where children cry to themselves alone; In war torn lands of enemies and fear; With no food, no family, no home. Where death lingers and is always near. Where soldiers line the ancient street; Killing in the name of God, guns, and greed; The bodies of babies at their feet. The soul of humanity bleeds. When so many choose to turn away; Children need a warrior friend; I long to be with them today. If not to fight, but to defend. Where angels fear to tread; And cowards never go. In the lands of the dying and dead. I send my love. A’ho!! In Loving memory of the Children who have died because of war , guns, greed, and religion this year. Darlene Doll Smith
