Seems senseless to have to post this in a category of Life . . . when, in fact, it is about the very cruel and savage taking of lives. We cannot afford this loss. Dedicated to the lost teens of the Littleton, Colorado, high school shooting rampage. May you rest with God.

I really like this poem! I am reading "Rachels Tears", which is a book about Rachel Scott who died in the columbine shooting. Her parents wrote the book and it is very interesting to learn how the parents are dealing with the pain.

It is soon going to be 5 years since the Columbine Massacre happened and it was something that affected me very much when the shootings occured. We have been talking about bullying in Drama Class recently and we were asked to have an example of bullying and I chose the Columbine Shootings. I was looking for a good poem to share with my class sort of as a prayer that will be said on April 20th. I hope you dont mind if i use it. I think its beautiful and it brings tears to my eyes. Thank you.

This is a very comforting tribute about the students lost at Columbine. I just hope, and pray that there is never a incident so terrible as that for you to have to write another tribute such as this.

Wonderful and full of heart and compassion. I bet the parents of the columbine children would be at peace with this poem. Knowing their children are now safe. Great poem!
