World Beater

A world beater
A silence eater
You float
Across the sky
High
On the happiness
Left trailing
Behind
Combined
With the efforts
Of others;
Mothers
Fathers
Brought
Freedom
From
The chains
The pains
Of humanity
And cast
A new
Sunlight
Shone
Bright
Upon
Their lives
Cast aside
The misery
Of their existence
And brought
Contentment
Happiness
Calm
Brought
Salvation
A balm
To their souls
