Poetry Thursday : A Tribute To VT Victims .

I was shocked when I heard the bad news.
Of a crazy man shooting in the UV campus.
All 32 lives of mix nationalities cut short.
They're all student & teachers of some sort.


They are Moms, Dads, Sisters and Brothers
Beautiful lives cut short like do not matter.
I can' fathom the amount of pain & sorrow.
Feelings that sure won't go away tommorow.

One victim's father was very downtrodden .
At the place where his daughter was taken.
When a CNN man asked him how is she ?
' My baby failed to make it 'he said weepingly.


Yesterday, I read each victim's life story.
My heart ached as I went on so tearfully.
It seemed like that 1 glorious spring day,
Suddenly ,winter again was on the way .

To Hoakies, this day won't be forgotten.
Wishing this incident never happpened.
People had enough of senseless killings,
Be these at homes or at school buildings .

This is a really beautiful poem and tribute. Thank you for this.
