In response to last night’s news, I find my words falling into Haiku. Here they are:
1) I heard news last night
Osama bin Laden dead
Pray for enemies
2) Dancing in the street
College students cheer “U.S.”
Those kids are so young
3) Servicemen storm in
Target has been taken on
Much blood has been shed
4) Learning forgiveness
It does not come easy, no
No delight in death
5) World has changed today
But has it really changed much
Fear still exists
6) We are on alert
Retaliation may come
What will happen next
7) God, Holy Father
Hear the cries of your children
Please grant us your peace
