What Can be Said?

What Can be Said ?
By
Lisa A. Williams


What can be said
about the darkness
which filled
a sunny school day
where a raging monster
took their lives away
with cold metal
so easily put in his hands
bent on destruction?
As little lives
were sacrificed-
 time stopped
for all of us
uniting us in a sorrow
screaming to heaven
as God looked down
and wept on a world
                                                                     gone so wrong

  1. So very true and so very sad, Lisa. Your words verbalize the 'mood' of the day so well. God MUST be weeping. I am so sad for all those parents who have presents for their children who will never receive them; and for children who have lost their parents at Christmas. And I keep wondering: WHY?

  2. Concisely, you articulate what many cannot.

    Aptly put... and the title is perfect. My mind still can't compute such things... and your words capture that sense...
