The Sky Kissed The Ground by Sarah, 12 my second selection and final is a poem about the school shootings ----------------------------------------------------- Today was the day the sky kissed the ground and silence was the only sound as time stood still and hateful sharp gun's blow could kill   Today was the day the sky kissed the ground as young lives fell down and the morning news had left all eyes feeling blue
