Second Anniversary.

SECOND ANNIVERSARY…(©Peter Sprenkeler)

Another anniversary…we miss you so please believe us,
Yes terrorism did kill…and wretchedly deceive us.
We trust you now sit beside our loving Lord Jesus,
Your passing still so vivid…never will it leave us.

We have seen the 'footage' so many ghastly times,
Your killers have by now no doubt paid for their crimes.
We send your spirits love…in these poetic lines,
The pain in our hearts…an unmistakable sign.

Time has come to put the videos and tapes aside,
The pain will never diminish…forever will it reside.
In our minds and hearts…tears for you still are cried,
Look at our faces…our eyes awash…emotions not yet dried.

We need no media reminders…nor political schemes,
It is and will always be so clear in deepest dreams.
It is time for quietness with reflection so it seems,
Less publicity…more dignity…in urgency it screams.

The wounds are deep…maybe they never will heal,
Still far too much…for many with which to deal.
Intensely private sadness…all sense grief will sometimes steal,
Such a price we all have paid…for religious fervour and zeal.

Such a price…it is a comfort to us that you suffer no more,
Our memories still crave…to see you come to the door.
We ache…we hurt…and live in fear…to God we now implore,
Heaven only knows what next…terrorism has in store.

But leave us to grieve…for to fond memories we hold,
We don't want the 'hype' and publicity…so careless and bold.
We just want some space…for our departed need to be always told,
Our memories and love will continue…a link…a cosmic thread of gold.

Pete that was a very touching heartfelt and fellow feeling poem! It's obvious you were deeply touched, and so was I . How kind of you to make the tribute to all those that die.
I don't know you Pete....but I know your heart is neat.....for out of the heart the pen writes...it speaks and this is lovely a poem for which we all can never forget!
We will grieve forever!
Thank you Pete
