Another week of mourning the senseless deaths of children. This poem, by a Jewish resistance leader against the Nazi’s is the best I can do.
Consolation
It will not last. A few more weeks,
a month, two at the most,
the wounds will heal.
Everything will get better.
Apart from what is no longer there.
Abba Kovner (tr. from Hebrew by Eddie Levenston)
Thanks once again to Sean Singer for his posts, where I saw this.
