Chant from the Heavens

Devistation...Existence...Fear...Mourning...If ever a bud to bloom...Peace far away...




Outside the Earth and its beauty

Now devastation

My only safe existence

Be in here for now

The warfare I can hear

The cries in mourning

The screams in fear

Our once upon a time Government

Now, Gangs

Each trying to control

A space or territory

It is in here

The spirits of those who once lived in peace

Chant from the Heavens

Voices of my Angels

My protectors

I only ask

If ever a bud to bloom

The time left in this world

Only to imagine peace far away

Peace does seem so very far away from us at this point. Will war ever end in a good way? Only God knows the answer to that. Meanwhile we must have faith that peace is coming and soon before much more destuction of young lives and families.

So many can identify with this writing, all over the world and in our inner cities. A powerful piece.

You reach out and grab my heart with this one, so very emotional, yet I hear an inner peace allowing God to guide you....

Be always safe,
Karen
