A Time For Change Poem by Billy Loving

A blinding muzzle's flash
He's breathed his last
So young do they die
As the mothers cry
Another untimely death
A family left bereft

News cameras roll in
Another story about to begin
Story meticulously told
While the events unfold
If only time you could erase
A life you could put back in place

Change can only come from within
On ourselves we need to depend
Education is the key
To opening a new world for you and me
Religion, our faithful guide
As on the sea of life we ride
In heaven, the lord patiently waits above
Our sanctuary, his unwavering mercy and love
