Prayers and tears

One time we met to pray, talk, Chat but to pray.
Reading the papers of all the news
The room fell silent as the story was read
A girl `Sophie`
venue Bacup west Yorkshire,
had been beaten and Died.
The young girl reading the story followed
the events in other newspaper reports.
Everyone present was moved.
l never have forgotten that sharing experience
the feeling`s
Shock.
Emptiness at Sophie's Mums loss
Tears. . yes ours. Also silent reflection in each heart
as we mourned, sure it was nothing like Sophie family and friends

We searched and followed up,
looking at others dress culture and custom`s,
pain of family along with friends,
mixed.
fused.
with our own feelings
from a distance but still real.
never forgotten Sophie.
her pain.
torment.
example.
We often go to Whitby
place our respects
in flowers,
and tears.
