War On Terror Poem by Kinyua Karanja

After long delicate multiple surgical operations,
A crew of doctors felt a calming wave of relieve;
Like a troupe of soldiers from foreign missions,
They deeply thanked god that she was still alive.
The innocent little girl regained her conscious,
She woke up and realized she that was in hospital,
Her mind rushed back to incident of the previous
Day, when gang of terrorist attacked the capital.

It was a hard task for the nurses to explain:
Why on earth a sane man could splay bullets
To others, killing and inflicting all the pain?
On that fateful birthday party's last minutes,
As streams of tears strolled down her cheeks.
She sadly recalled her parents and friends,
So painful that she was even unable to speak
Of the horrible deaths they all suffered.

The nurses couldn't hid their tears no more,
The y will condemn terrorism day by day;
As security forces declared a full scare war,
Like everybody else, they had a role to play.
