    Amongst The Few (dedicated to SandyHook)



    There were a few
    inside of a room
    inside of a class
    where they met their doom

    Their protectors few
    no escape in view
    a group of children
    did death pursue

    a gunman has massacred a school!!
    a gunman has massacred a school!!

    Mothers and Fathers get the news
    all come runnin' toward the school
    to find that all are alive but the few
    cries; all are alive but the few!!

    Brave teachers, staff and faculty
    did this list include
    some of who, died with the few
    some of who, gave their lives for the few

    The WORLD waits to hear what will ensue
    will justice prevail for the few??
    will questions be answered??
    will they learn anything new??

    gunman found dead at the school!!
    gunman found dead at the school!!

    he took his life before they knew
    JUSTICE has prevailed for the few
    still all are sad and all are blue
    for those who had died amongst the few

    There were a few
    inside of a room
    inside of a class
    where they met their doom

    Their protectors few
    no escape in view
    a group of children
    did death pursue

    still all are sad and all are blue
    for the twenty children
    and the seven too

    We all are trying to wrap our minds around what could possibly make someone do this and so far there is no answers ..something need to be done because this should have never happen.. thanks for sharing this ink..

    we must strive to understand ourselves...we yearn to learn about everything...and we still have yet to learn the most important..."I"

    motive in the face of incomprehensible insanity confounds language!

    sooo true...

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
