Drum Beats In The Distance
their echo in my mind verify their existence
Like a runner's pulse rate they quicken
suddenly my heart with fear is stricken
Because I see the hand writing on the wall
and in the past this as meant bodies will fall
These love notes from hell before
have been the precursor to war
Young people sent off to die
sometimes all due to a lie
Innocent Mothers and Babies are too often killed
their life's missions left unfulfilled
Love ones left to deal with the loss
all because Satan wants to be the Boss

sometimes all due to a lie
Innocent Mothers and Babies are too often killed

I wrote this back in 2017 when I thought Trump was going to get the US involved in another shooting war in the Middle East. Sadly, Putin has begun another shooting war. Ty for reading it and Prayers for the Ukraine.
