SIX (© John MacLean 2013) Winter morning magic As we walk to school Jack Frost makes you smile You are only six Hearing others laugh You rush on to join Then you turn around And shyly wave goodbye They say guns don't do the killing I say bullets make them gone And someone buys those bullets And puts them in his gun And since he has a semi His work is quickly done As he shoots our little children One by one by one Late sun, long shadows Mark this lonely path Through our weary church yard How the world has slipped Standing in attendance As you slowly leave Then I turn around As if to say goodbye You were only six Song List Home
