Liebe Familie von Luise!

Ich finde keine Worte, die diese schreckliche Tat beschreiben könnten...habe aber heute zufällig ein Gedicht gefunden, diesen möchte ich gerne mit Ihnen Teilen:

I spoke to a robin
Who visits my tree
I told him I thought
You were waiting for me
He shook his soft head
And much disagreed
-the children in heaven
are happy, you see-

They know of no fear
They feel no regret
They spend the days wrapped
In a blissful forget
They are loved very much
By your ancestors all
And they run around playing
With sticks and a ball

And the only time
Children in heaven seem sad
Is when they look down
On the life that they had
And the people they love
feel no longer alive
Even though it's not their time
To travel this side

So chin up, said Robin
Let no more tears fall
Your child is quite free
With their sticks and a ball
And they're in no great rush
To see you just yet
You'll have life still to live
And more memories to get

And time may pass slowly
Here on the ground
But in heaven it's moments
It quickly comes round
So let the world turn
And let everything be
-the children in heaven
Are happy, you see-
