i give permission
for every sydneysider
to cry today
for this slow rain
to soak away the blood
of the innocent
the violet beds
have been contaminated
by the religion of peace
Quran (9:30) -
And the Jews say Ezra is the son of Allah, and the Christians say the Messiah is the son of Allah;
these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the same of those who disbelieved before;
may Allah destroy them.
we will never
be intimidated
by this hatred
Eternal rest grant unto them O Lord
And may perpetual light shine upon them
Katrina Dawson and Tory Johnson
Requiescant in pace
Amen

Thank you for your comment. Much appreciated.
ReplyDeleteWonderful post Rall ... very strong imagery.
ReplyDeleteI'm imagining that the slow rain of tears is falling all over Sydney today. Blessings on all.
ReplyDeleteWho Gave Permission?
A sad day.. I woke to this.. and then the children in Peshawar....
ReplyDeleteWe are all children of God, especially Tori and Katrina and all those Islamic children murdered by their own in Pakistan. Every innocent death disproves every word that is uttered in hate by these extremists.
