I wrote this in memory of the twenty-six people — 20 students and six adults, who were shot and killed at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut one year ago today, December 14 2012.  R.I.P

Twenty Angels

Twenty angels now in Gods arms

Arrived before their time

Their families are left distraught

Victims of such a crime

God must have really wanted them

To be there by his side

For his sons Birthday celebrations

The day that they all died

Twenty angels now in Heaven

Arriving for the big day

Just eleven days before Christmas

For baby Jesus’ Birthday

They left in such a hurry

They never said goodbye

They never knew it was their time

That they were about to die

Twenty angels Gone to Heaven

Missed so much by dads and mams

Why did they have to be taken

So violently by guns

We pray they didn’t suffer

Dundrum multi story car park is not a good place to lose your car on a busy Friday afternoon before Christmas. It doesn’t help when no one will help when you call for assistance. I know how sad and lonely Adele felt now when she kept getting no reply…

Hello… it’s me.I was wondering if after all this time you can help me

It’s been so long, at least half an hour, and I can’t find my car

Hello, can you hear me? I wish I was in California dreaming about my car, but I’m in Dundrum and that’s not very far. It feels like there’s a million miles between us.

Hello, from the outside. I must have called you a thousand times but you are never there

Hello.Can you hear me on the other side? At least I can say I’ve tried

To tell you I’m sorry I’ve lost…

I lost my good friend Sarah to cancer yesterday. I still can’t believe she is gone. So sad this close to Christmas for her two little boys. Sleep tight Sarah…our Wonder Woman is flying high.xxx

There’s a new star in the sky tonight

Big and sparkling and shining bright

Our Sarah, she was too young to die

But she is gone , now she will fly

Up to Heaven on Angels wings

Our star of drama Queens and Kings

We can’t believe she’s not coming back

Our pal so full of fun and craic

Always with a joke  and a laugh

Taking her selfie photographs

A daughter, a wife, a sister, a mother

Sarah was not like any other

Her time had come, she had to go

But we will always miss her so

Yes there’s another Angel in Heaven tonight

Another warrior who fought the fight

Our Wonder Woman…
