It is a warm sunny afternoon
Here I am sitting in my room
Talking to friends about the world we live in
Counting on our blessings each day
Celebrating life as we move along.
The heaviness of the heart still persists
The events of the last few days
Bring tears to my eyes.
A boy known to me and yet unknown in so many ways
A life so young; gone so far ; too soon.
My heart is still crying although the tears have dried up.
What a year 2020 has been !
With so much pain and suffering.
My lips say a silent prayer of gratitude
To the Almighty and the Universe
To keep us safe and in sound health
Physical, Mental and Emotional;
For these are the times that test the real me.
A silent prayer escapes my lips
Please help me to listen to the words unsaid;
Feel the pain untold;
So that I can reach out and wipe away,
The tears of people
Near and dear.
Life is beautiful
And so are you.
Lets rekindle the faith
Lets come together and celebrate
