Bombers from the Bay
Posted: November 30, 2008
A new kind of cowboy raids the Indians…
The news from Mumbai made us cry.
Upwards of two hundred died
as bombers from the bay arrived
with terror on their side.
The Taj Hotel (that city's jewel)
became a playhouse for these fools
who look so young and innocent
though trained in terror's school.
These cowboys of another kind
have robbed the red-dot Indians blind.
They've vandalized a nation's nerves
and stole her peace of mind.
Good God, why does such bad go on?
When will the peace You promised dawn?
How many children must awake
to find their parents gone?
As Advent guides our thoughts this year
remind us, Lord, that You are near
to those who stumble in the dark
and hide because of fear.
