A cozy household prays for better times
while a single candle enlights their home
Cold and hunger leaves alarming signs
But they trust their hope and the fact they’re not alone

Bitter voices of artillery haunt and remind
the dreams of the children of ammunition
But dad and mom and li’l Sue so kind
have a trusting hope for an end of the demolition

All have their fears but together they pray
thanking the Lord for the love they can share
and combining hopes they beg to cease their dismay
Each and every hour they take time for their special prayer

Whether and when their request is allowed
their strengthening hope will ensure a loving fate
‘Cause this friendly household with the love they vowed
deserves the charmed world which they now await

You have found your Muse...or she has found you. Excellent poem!
