This poem was written in memory of the Syrian children who lost their lives on, August 21, 2013, caused by the chemical bombing, allegedly headed by the Syrian government, who in return allege rebels were responsible, nonetheless, four hundred-twenty six children are dead.

 SYRIA

 
Where have all the Syrian children gone
will their mother's ever hear them sing another sweet Syrian song
or will it be the ringing they hear of a chemical bomb
And there'll be no more lullabies
just gas filled clouds in the Syrian skies
children that had hopes, dreams, and hearts desires
have been attacked and snatched from the Syrian choirs
Syrian families will keep their night lights on
hoping their children's souls will find their way back home
a monster in power was their chemical predator
all under the watchful eye of our Heavenly progenitor
mother's and father's homes are stuffed with screams, eyes all cried out
pointing an accusing finger at the monster of whom is at fault
so now Jeremiah 29:11 what is in God's plan
does America just stand by or do we take a stand
our American President has come up with a solution
to discipline the one responsible for the murderous chemical pollution
By  proposing targeted military strikes
It will insure the lives of other Syrian tykes
but the surrounding countries are screaming this is Syria's mess
even though it was televised and we all became witness
to the atrocity of the 1,429 souls that were lost
426 of them were children whose souls have crossed
over into God's Heavenly Kingdom
let us remove the cloud of dictatorship replacing it with freedom
giving each Syrian man, woman, and child the right to live free
in what appears to be a lost, dark, and hopeless country
1 Corinthians 13:13 says, "There are three things that will last forever; faith, hope, and love
and the greatest of these is love

Obama was wise not to take more lives. Several times, he has made strong announcements but backed off when it came to killing. Unfortunately, the drone strikes over the world, he is being accused of continuing unbridled terrorism on anyone suspected of harming Americans and their children.

The Bible has been used too many times as an excuse to go to war and it is of little use in stopping it.
