Another Coal Pit Disaster
Mothers And Wives Weep For Their Loss

Just Another Tragic Loss
In the depths where darkness reigns,
A pit man’s courage, enduring pains.
With every shift, he faced the risk,
But fate was unkind, and life turned brisk.
A sudden fall, the world stood still,
In the heart of the coal, he met his will.
What once brought pride now brings me grief,
A tragedy strikes, beyond belief.
His laughter echoed in tunnels so deep,
Now silence surrounds, where I should weep.
A life dedicated to the toil and the grind,
Now only memories linger behind.
In shadows of sorrow, I carry his name,
Through the weight of the loss, life feels the same.
Though the pit has claimed what I hold dear,
His spirit remains, forever near.
so many good men lost to the coal pit deaths
A miner lost to the tragedy, bless their last breath
