This is a poem I wrote for consideration by the Daniel Pearl Foundation. They are holding their October Days events next month. For more details check out their website here. I hope the poem moves you (I just decided to share it here - was originally sent only to dear friends:
"To Life"
In Memory of Daniel Pearl
Faith
Shrouded in Hatred
Attacked Humanity.
God
Was Not There.
Only this Heart,
Alone
There was Fear,
An internal Fight
There was Pride,
Spoken of the streets of Jerusalem
There was No Defeat.
Only Death,
and Heaven
and Daniel
In The Heart Of God
