Death of a terrorist

 
The sun is warm and bright
crisp clear air surrounds.
the storm of yesterday
calm  uncanny, is it true?
The change so sudden
should we believe ?
Ten years to wait
is this true?
Only the sea can tell.
Thomas asked for proof
to see the wounds
shall we see the blood
to believe a gift
a gift beyond belief?
But stay my friend
a life is lost,
ask not for proof
but grace to forgive.
Enjoy the calm, 'til
day is ended, and
night's dark clouds
enfold our doubts
as Thomas once.
