A great Haiku with 5/7/5 syllables. Many are feeling this right now, but only God knows how many of them are saved. I love this little poem, Carolyn. Thanks for sharing. :>D Miss Sally

    Thanks for this wonderful review, you are so right, and it does take more to go to heaven than dying at the hand of a terrorist. But I would like to think that those, especially who die for the cost of Christ would be in this manner.

your words allow the reader to see and feel the act of terrorism to be quick

good visual to portray message
good enjambment to allow flow
good use "D" "L" consonance
good use "O" assonance
flows easy read

cheers Smoothiecool

    One would have to believe the eternal end is better than the temporary terror. Thank you so much Faye, Carolyn

This is a beautiful poem that the author has created here. I am reading many posts of this nature over the past few days. It is good to see solidarity among people against these terrible terror attacks.

G'day Caroline, this is a great response mate to the challenge. I hope you are right that it is painless. I pray that this will stop and that is all we can do. God will win and so will we. Cheers Fez

    Yes God will win. I just pray those who are inclined to terrorize the world will be softened in some way and stop this terrible trend of hatred. Thank you Fez.

Carolyn; mentally graphic, the imagery is very descriptive and expressive. Truly your imagination is very inventive and ingeniously creative. A vivid expression after terrorists does what they do in a drastic manner. Thank you for sharing and posting and may all your endeavors be graced by the Lord.
PS: I could see why you didn't need a picture for this poem.

    Thanks Alex for your fine comments on this one.
    I didn't even look for a picture as I felt the reader would immediately put themselves under the hood.
