WhatsApp message of the day

In the comfort of my warm home snug in a quilt i ponder and think of the mothers who in the morning each had dressed her child, ironing the school uniform and packing the tiffins with love and life , Telling him to wear an extra layer as it was cold outside.

As a mother somewhere had tied ribbons on her daughter's pigtails and kissed the face bright. Hundreds of mothers now shriek with agony in my neighbourhood for their children who today died Their bodies charred with guns which were long laden with bullets of hatred and strife Today humanity lost and barbarism won and innocent lives paid the price The world howls and shrieks in shock and disbelief and lets out a collective cry of plight A mother clutches to her son's school bag and lets out a deafening cry A father looks towards the door in wait of the child who was his pride And though numb with pain I do nothing I just sit watching the tv uptight Then I silently get up and go to my children's warm rooms and hug them tight !
