Shot --
the hammock
snapped, --
dropped
us down.
Shot --
the tulip heads –
stems left aground.
Shot --
the weeping
cherry .
Blink and we
miss its glory;
blossoms dust the
mid-May lawns.
Shot –
another
Rochester teen –
no words
to explain
or gang
to blame.
Shot – his
parents’ dream
to smithereens.
Shot –
a prayer to
Heaven to
heal their
grief.
