26 New Angels
In the night sky
not too far
26 New Angels now stand
as shining new stars.
They left for school one morning
with smiles on their face
it was somewhere they thought
was supposed to be a safe place.
26 Angels who used to teach and play
then in an instant
would all be taken away.
An unspeakable act,
just a few moments of terror
the act of a coward took away
26 New Angels, that 'til then
knew no fear.
Though they were the children
they taught us a lesson that very sad day,
Love every day you have
'cause in an instant
it could all be taken away.
Look out to the night sky
wherever you are
26 New Angels now stand
as 26 new shining stars.
