A Child Lost

A child is brought into this wondrous world And your heart it sings with unbelievable joy A child born unto you to hold close to your breast Your babe to feed, nourish and provide with your all A child, within moments, so eager to learn everything So able to trust, eager to love, and filled with song Dancing by your side to their own special tune Love and protect them with your life, if you must Do not let them know the beasts of this world Their innocent pure heart, keep it safe and beautiful And if one tragic day your child should ever leave you Thank God for the having, for the loving that was And know your child is in a safe place in God’s care Waiting to whisper, “Oh Mother, my Mother I love you so!”
