Bali Bombing 2002
by Caroline Louise Hooimeyer copyright 2002
We thought we were immune from such terror & pain,
And such grief that was born by evil gain.
Our Great Southland of the lucky & free,
Where life seemed inperfect harmony.
Yet that constant evil roams the earth today,
And no one is immuned in any way.
Like those innocent young people enjoying a life full & fast,
Were killed or maimed in that terrible blast.
Their families back home are distraught & torn apart,
Grieving in pain with their broken heart.
And in their suffering they continually cry,
"I don't understand,why oh why?"
Why life can be taken away in such a short time
By such a cowardly act & hideous crime.
For those who have lost loved ones we send our sympathy & prayers,
To let you know we feel for your pain & really care.
Cherish your loved ones as before you know it they are gone
And enjoy each day & don't worry about the little things,
Take time to appreciate the good things that life brings.
