There’s a Child in London

Dedicated to those lost July 7th, 2005 in the London Underground Bombings

There’s a child in London
who still doesn’t know,
what happened to his daddy,
and why life has slowed.

There’s a child in London
now laying in a bed,
attached to tubes and monitors,
bandages covering their head.

There’s a child in London
no one will ever meet.
Mommy took the tube;
life ended; incomplete.

There’s a child in London
inconsolablewith tears,
As they learn of the terror,
The child finds comfort in prayers.

There’s a child in London
who will never be the same,
and as they grow up,
they’ll learn who to blame.

Immortal Memory

WTC Memorial Poem

This date will never be forgotten.
Life will never be the same.
One resolves this to Immortal Memory,
So that life my continue
only roughly interrupted.

Immortal Memory haunts
No second chances
No escape for many
We call on the names of souls
Washed into turbulence and dreams.

Never more seen, heard, nor felt
Our friends, family and coworkers
Shine in the night’s sky
with the stars and dreams
Of our Immortal Memory.
