A TWO-YEAR-OLD DIED TODAY

                                A TWO-YEAR-OLD DIED

                                             12/22/2025

I heard on the news this morning that a two-year-old just died. To make the news the circumstances must be suspect. This news grabbed me and would not let go. I suspect the reason is the season and I associate children with happiness, especially now.

What follows are thoughts trying to be a poem.

A TWO-YEAR-OLD DIED

A two-year-old died today,

Does anyone ask, “Why”?

Or break down and cry.

A two-year-old died today,

Will it happen again?

Just a matter of when.

POEMS & FLEETING THOUGHTS

                                                    THE END

 

For our country,

I feel this

Is the beginning

Of the end.

And we

Are in part

Responsible.

 

 

I once used a line in a poem, ‘a sadness too deep to be real’.

It is becoming real.

 

There are still those full of poetry, stories and art. They struggle to survive and they always will. But greed has taken over this country.

 

The only comfort for me personally is that I will be dead when this great country’s dream is unrecognizable.
