Virginia Tech

Views (276) Tragedy Created on 4-17-07 Flag

i think sometimes mankind needs to reflect

on why things happen

like what happened at virginia tech

when tragedies happen

they seem to have an effect

to bring us together

unite us in purpose and cause

but when i pause

and stop to think, i wonder

why do we forget the clause

that says, “one nation, under god”?

when things happen like 9-11

people start to wonder

is there a god in heaven?

why do we have to feel this pain?

i dont want to complain

but its not god who is to blame

in this life, well all have the choice

to do bad or good

but let me raise my voice

and tell you that christ lives

and through all this pain

his love he still gives

so lets come together

one nation under god

and lets show some respect

and some love for those

who felt the effect

of the shooting at virginia tech

petabeta That one I appreciate. I love the way you didn't just focus on pain and reflection but on God who we blame for the bad and never really give Him the credit for the good....when I say "we" I mean mankind. Very well.

CAT5225 There are alot of people who think they are poets. Many of them aren't very good. You are not one of those people. I really really loved your poem. In a world where less and less people are believing in God, and choose to believe in a religion created by a science fiction writer (no offense to scientologists..), I'm glad that at least one other person admits that Christ lives. Again, I loved it. =)

Tony1985 Great poem! Like you said, it sucks that we only come together when something tragic happens like 9/11 or VT shootings. It's also sad that the media does continious coverage on this stuff to the point of where we change the channel and say "enough already!" It's not fair that they make us do that to them and "fillibuster" the tragedy. Great poem though!
