For everyone in the USA and the UK who lost loved ones in the planes and buildings that were destroyed on September 11th, 2001, and for everyone who fears for loved ones when they travel far away.

Wings And Prayer
© Sara L. Russell

God bless America
God bless and help us all,
God forbid that love's cargo should fall.

God bless the traveller;
God knows how we all try
To hold those silver birds up in the sky

With nothing more than prayer
And the tender mercies of the shifting air.

Thank you for this and I agree with Ian. Janet

Have to disagree with the previous review. The rhythm looks fine to me. Perhaps its because different syllables are stressed on either side of the pond.

The expression conveyed is penetrating, but the rhythm needs work.
