My response to this week’s Haiku Heights prompt, Wish is a short tribute to the Connecticut tragedy.
Wish
Her love creased in pain Rama weeps for her slain children Herod in disguise? Herod in disguise His lone wish to let blood flow Misguided hero Misguided hero Cold action ignites terror Sweet souls wish for moms Sweet souls wish for moms As their cracked lids close in sleep Angels lead them home Copyright © Celestine Nudanu 16/12/12+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I appreciate your patience with me as I catch up on your blogs. Thanks a million! Shalom

You are very welcome, MMT. Thanks for commenting.
Very touching! I am just not able to get over the tragedy. May their soul rest in peace.
Amen to that. Thank you so much for the visit.
I plunged into the Haiku without noting these were Connecticut related, and in their depths felt the shock and horror again.
