As tonight, we remember the families that died..
Requiem
Here we come to honour the silence
And with fear and trembling stand;
At the fury killing, so blinded
For with dying in his hand
He wrought of the family death
And a sorrow great to our land
A loving family, yet contrary
Nothing seemed to be going that good
House of cards collapsing a venture
And the price came in blood
A dark rage to all his faithful
Love turning darkly his mood
Lost the children dying unshriven
And sorrow enfolds with dismay
At the sudden ending of breath
Time becomes an endless day
And the light fades, to vanish
As darkness comes this way
Mourn the family, such tragic death
Light a candle in darkling eye
Veil their faces to the presence,
As with ceaseless voice we cry:
Farewell, we will mourn you
Now on wings, arise and fly.

Well done Tony, Poignant words of truth. I lit a candle and we all participated in the six mins of silence here.
