And so the shadows cast the darkness
Into the hearts of those who hate
Commanding men to horrid tasks
Tempting Heaven and its fate
Their reasoning, self-addicted
Their violence, self-inflicted
Innocents lost among the evil
Husband, daughter, son and wife
Bodies covered red with blood
Their only fault was living life
In memory of those lost on November 13, 2015, in the attacks on Paris, France….. May they rest in Peace

In the hours approaching darkness, I looked up to a clouded sky
Hoping God could hear me, and the words within my sigh
And soon the gray of night, parted with a shimmering star
And I knew deep in my heart, that it was you, from afar
Already watching over, all you called your own
With the grace of God, you shine, from your everlasting home
RIP dear friend…..
I lost a very dear friend today. I didn’t know what else to do but write…. he holds a special place in my heart and I will miss him….

With the colors
Of lush autumn trees
Swirling
Around her
The rush of the leaves
Surrounded
By beauty
She sighs in reprise
As her thoughts
Carry her
Away
With the breeze
