Loss In Haiti

 

Loss In Haiti

I was watching a video

About what happened in Haiti

And it looks like something else hit

Than a earthquake

 

They showed a little boy

He had a hole in his chest

Screaming in pain

Under a tent

 

A mother and father

Had a new born baby

A US military doctor

Delivered it for them

 

Lost lives, gain life

Learning from others

Walking as if nothing happened

Still smiling and laughing

 

Haitians have a way about them

Its not the end of the world

They feel for their people

And their doing what they can

 

Food and water are hard to find

I see all the food we waste everyday

Why not send it to them?

They need it more than us

 

We lost a lot of hearts that day

And they continue to drop

Houses and places destroyed

Cleaning up the mess

 

People have been donating

Its helps, but it doesn’t bring back the lives

Americans see a disaster

And we run to it

 

Dear God

We are sending prayers your way

More than usual

So here us today

Once again, you show a heart of Platinum, not just gold. Your humanity is felt strong in this heart, Kylie. And I am honored to know, and have as friend a heart so sincere. Thank you for sharing such an important message. Outstanding.
