Freeway, No way!
I just read about little four-year old Lliana (Lilly) Rose Garcia who died as a result of senseless road rage violence. I cannot begin to imagine the shock and trauma for her older brother Isaac as he watched her become lifeless. My heart breaks every time I hear an innocent child is killed because adults get angry and do not know how to control their rage. This is happening too many times. It is appalling, disgusting and sickening.
My prayers are with the Gracia family. I wrote this poem to honor Lilly:
Ephemeral rage
a life snuffed senselessly
a freeway, No way!
Never mind the traffic signs
Speed limits or laws
Basic humanity should rule
no respect for life anymore
Innocent child with
Beautiful Big Brown Eyes
mesmerize the angels
waiting for Lilly
