Blood saturates the ground, helpless screaming can be heard.
All the world mourns in a moment of silence, prayer the soothing word.
Cowardice act leaves a coldness in every heart, yet much compassionate concern.
Many buildings are aflame, inside infinite rage, the burn.Acrid smoke is the dismal outlook, penetrated only by spiritual means.
Weeping and heartaches is the sad outcome of all the tragic scenes.
Anger is an ebony cloud, covering the decaying emotion.
Lord is the the only light, his word will be a healing lotion.Many rescuers rush to save the hurt and dying.
In the streets the very heart of our country is crying.
The president and political leaders have to keep the people in safety.
What words or actions can alter the dismal feelings of this tragedy?Prayer is the balm for many, just to know someone cares.
In this catastrophe, the whole world shares.
Planes were used as bombs cowardly, people were slain.
For what reason could this countless murder no one can explain!
