Daylight is getting shorter,
A chill is setting in--
This year's almost over,
And a new one will begin.
Before the year is over,
We must pay our respects--
To those who lost their homes and
Some their lives to Mother Nature's wrath.
And all around the world there will
Be memorials to those who died--
Either through terrorist attacks, or
People with sickness in their minds.
When we lose a loved one--famous
Or not, we feel the same pain.
We can see the famous on TV and movies,
Others we keep in our hearts forever to remain.
There's been so much tragedy this year,
It's hard to remember the good.
The good shone through the tragedies:
People helping people--doing good.
We pray the new year will be
Better--that peace will come at last.
We need no more war and violence--
We've had too much in the past.
