For Brittany Maynard

That frightened Child With the woman's eyes Felt a dread She could not disguise; She asked, "Oh Lord, What have I done For you to beckon One so young?" The Lord answered, "You have no sin. A special place lies within My arms for you. I gave you wings My cherished one; Spread them now... And come. "

Thank you Linda ?? I wrote this in response to a friend of a friend on Facebook, who said she would burn in Hell for taking her own life. I'm actually an atheist, and just used the poem as a tool. Hope you still appreciate it lol. Take care ??
