In so great a loss....
May we all take time to be silent
and pray.

A Prayer....
So many lives, For reasons unknown
Have ended with tragedy.
The Student, The Athlete...
The Thinker, The Do-er
In a day unlike another
In a place where knowledge is held
Where friends are kept
Where people seem safe
Not one but many lives were taken,
Dreams were shattered
Hopes were lost...
And safety unwound
A world of Prayers are held for the one,
For the many
For the families
For ye who is touched by the disaster
I, as a single holder of prayer,
Can do but little except pray.
Can look to god for the safety of the others
and give my condolences.
Let it be known of the lives that were taken
Young students, young dreams.
Innocence on this day has been shattered.
And because of this I write
Let all who read this take a moment,
To think, To stop and pray
For the many families...
For those who witnessed the unthinkable...
And for those who can no longer live for what they dreamed of....
Our hearts go out to those families and young men and women
Cursed by this plague of violence...
I, as an individual, send my heart out to those students.
And hope that many others can do the same.

With Heartfelt Love for Littleton, Colo.
Colorado Victims Memorial
A Tragedy has Struck America.
As we mourn the deaths of thousands of victims,
we need to pray and keep in our hearts
the 266 plane passengers, 800 plus pentagon employees,
and the uncounted victims in New York.
What happened was a
heinous and violent act
not only against the United States,
but against all mankind and God.
And though we will search for
a reason why this happened,
we will never understand why
someone would commit such a
crime against their fellow man.
But we can pray for every soul
that has been touched by this terrorist act,
for all of those who were killed,
for all of those who were wounded,
and for all of those who
lost someone they love.
And we can pray for this country
in hopes that such a day will
never be written into
our history books again.
May God bless the victims, their families, and America.
