ON ANGELS WINGS
(c) 1999 Stephanie Durand
*This one was also written during the times when I was writing after seeing Father Manny. This one was always disturbing to me beause it was so sad. I have included it because I was not really sure whether to include it or not. This was right before Columbine happened. Many shootings happened that year in schools, sad year for students.*
Dedicated after to students and parents and loved ones /Columbine
As Venus arises amist the sea of black
That covers the universe like clockwork
Time slowly chimes and rocks the souls of mankind
Questioning the redness of these streets
The seepage of tears from eyes of despair
While mothers soothe their babies in fear, and
Fathers drill their sons into careers of manhood.
What hellish days will lie ahead,
Our children are falling from shots of steel
Innocent souls are lost and carried away
On Angel's Wings.
