Sometimes my curiosity peaks new levels as I wonder how someone could commit such atrocities.
A child's life,
so precious.
A child's spirit,
pure.
A child's smile,
heart warming.
A child's dreams,
forever growing.
A child is a scared key to a second realm that cannot be seen by grown ups.
A realm of happiness,
laughter,
and joy beyond comparison to anything else.
A child brings smiles on a cold, rainy day.
A child brings joy to the old and weak, fading away.
A child brings hope,
of a brighter, better future.
To me,
a child is one of the most special things in the world.
I hope to have my own some day,
and hopefully,
I pray,
something like this never happens to my child or myself.
But for now I grieve,
I mourn,
and I remember,
those who lost their lives in this horrific tragedy.
I send my condolences to the families of the children,
and hope they find peace,
love,
and a supportive community,
in this tragic time.
May God bless all involved in the incident,
and may they know he is taking good care of their loved ones up in Heaven.
