Hello dear members and readers.
Today Australia had a national day of mourning for the many victims of the Bondi massacre.
As part of my sadness of this terrible event I've written this poem. Fell free to leave your thoughts, prayers or comment for these Australians ...
EXCEPT FOR TODAY (19.12.2025)
RIP Matilda Bee (Bondi)
I'm an atheist except for today
And maybe more that come my way
So you might be alarmed if I pray
Its so I can grieve as one, with you all today
Matilda an Aussie by nature she gave
So innocent, she'd give a gentle wave
That smile helped her angel wings grow
An angel taken away- tears ebb and flow
Don't fear no more child of Christ
Those heroes and police and sacrifice
You are safe petal of flowers bright
The Lord will tuck you in every night
Through the blur of love we've had our say
Her friends and family wear bees today
So don't be surprised if you see me pray
I'm an atheist sweety... except for today...
