The silent sky

Grace @ Everyday Amazing

we walk in shadowy cold night

even in city's bright street lights

holding wounded faith close, we cast

nets, searching for answers we've asked

a million times, we're diminished 

by each senseless death & tarnished 

innocence.  we plead as we cast

nets for answers we've always asked

for understanding & peace, love 

to lift our hearts like morning doves, 

kindling hope amidst silence - vast    

sky, we search for answers we've asked   

Posted for D'verse Poets Pub - Kyrielle -  Poetry form is written in rhyming couplets, with the last line as a refrain.   

I am still grieving I must admit as I watch and listen  to debates on US gun control laws.  But I don't believe that more guns is the answer.  I am relieved that in Canada our gun laws are very strict.    

Thanks for the visit & have a wonderful day ~  I hope to write happier posts starting with my haiku tomorrow ~
