No One Sleeps In Peace
No one sleeps in peace tonight in Haiti.
Why?
Because of the screaming cries of death in the air.
Dead bodies lay under debris of buildings that have
fallen down on top of them.
No one sleeps in peace tonight because of the darkness
and death that has fallen on top of this land.
Some prayers have been answered but some have not.
No one sleeps in peace tonight.
Hospital beds are full, and some the bodies lay dead,
or half alive or crying for their loved ones to come and join
them back in this hard and cruel life.
No one will sleep in peace tonight in Port Au Prince, Haiti.

Maddie I am having trouble putting down the words how good your poem was. It made me cry. You are a very talented, tenderhearted young lady!
