empty of wishes
at the end of a red day
but full of prayers

Susan Daniels Poetry 
but full of prayers
Our hope is reassured in pain
God is already there
Yes. And again yes.
My day continues as night, but the prayers, they broadcast in all states.
Yes, they do.
Yes.
That’s what keeps us going !!!
Certainly does!
Ndo.. Tashie!
Thanks, Noel. It’s what you have told me a time or two. God dey.
yes Susan… a day filled with pain…
Full of prayers, I agree ~
Violence empties me too, down to my knees.
Yes, Susan, yes.
Empty indeed and the hollowness filled with horror. Beautiful haiku.
A few words lay a little balm on the scars! Beautifully written!
We wish in silent, we pray aloud, amen.. amen.. – ♥
God is already there
To keep the little ones safe
Free from pain and woes
Susan, I heard the harrowing news in church this morning and my mind wnet blank with disbelief and deep sorrow. Sometimes, events take place and we have no words, no understanding, no idea as to how, why it happened. We in Ghana always say Give it all to God. He knows best. But then even at such times, such words become rather lame and a poor comfort to the grieving parents and nation. And so, all I will say is that may the parents and the US be comforted, that the pain with time will subside and even fade, to be replaced by the sweet meories of those wonderful children. May they rest in perfect peace.
So true, Celestine–your words comfort us. Wish I could get them to the parents/families.
At the end that’s what man can afford! only road to peace, solace
God’s angels were there to meet them ….
Yes, they were.
Yes, at the end of the day, when the tragic deed has already taken place, all one can do is pray for their eternal peace.
