Twenty Christmas Angels

By Cynthia Jones, www.PoetryPoem.com/poetryandshortstories10    Unlock all Features - Upgrade to Poetry Prime

In a small, quiet town
eleven days before Christmas,
twenty-six people were shot
they will surely be missed.

A gunman took it upon himself
to break into a school,
the classrooms were filled with children
he was being such a fool.

My heart was sinking hard
when I was sitting, watching the news,
how can someone be this cruel?
I was happy, now feeling so blue.

In Newtown, Connecticut
six beloved adults were shot,
protecting their little Angels
hatred to the school, the gunman brought.

Twenty Christmas Angels being sent to God
didn't deserve to die this way,
my heart goes out to their parents
hard to feel joy, with this coming Christmas day.

In Newtown, Connecticut today, a gunman broke inside a school, took it upon himself to shoot and kill twenty-six children and teachers. Twenty of those innocent lives, were babies, aged, 5-10 years old. Let's pray for their souls and make sure we keep them all in our hearts, this Christmas Day. My heart goes out to those families, that have lost their loved ones, so close to Christmas. <3 :O'( <3
