For a hero

When you give your life for another. These people are the Angels waiting in heaven.

                                       

          Beautiful American

        (For Rachel Corrie. A human shield protecting woman and children.) 
                                                      

 
Just a woman.
 
She gave her heart to people far from her home.
 
Stood in front of guns and machines to save lives.
 
Protecting innocent people from.
 
The War machine in the hidden parts of the world from the world's eye sight.
 
She stood in front of a building.
 
Was crushed and die by Israel machinery.
 
Her life was lost for woman/men.
 
Who call her the Beautiful American..

                People like her are the real Angels in a life.
                They died for peace.)

Author's Note

We can' t get blinded by hate. When the beaten dog because the abuser. Holding hate and death over another nation. Maybe the country need to look deeply at their goals. I pray for peace in the middle east. Rachel Corrie went with faith and love and die for strangers. She is a true hero we need to remember her and many more.

appreciation is one thing that counts a lot. to really value other's works and place them in high esteem. kudos to you for seeing a great deed of someone, and then creatively portraying her cherishable life with such well written poetry. keep up the good work my good friend.

[lavina k.]

Well that was a great one to highlight those people who did a lot for us. And asked for nothing in return.....

[Blue tailed kite]

Thank you for sharing this poem with us... there are times when we wonder what is there still left of humanity... and then we come across who make us feel that there is still some hope left in the world.. who encourage us to stick to our guns and do our best... a great tribute to a great person

I think it extremely empathetic of you to write this poem. That you care enough to write an ode to a perfect stranger shows me you have a huge heart. I've only read a couple of your poems and I must admit I have a problem with your typos and incomplete words........There were more in your NY poem.
"Was crushed and die by Israel machinery." "Died"

This is a fantastic tribute poem. It seems for a lot of people its easier to hate than love others.
