Great Grace

Great grace Broken home broken heart Family life just fell apart Mother tried and did her best Father took off failed the test She an only child bullied at school Battled embittered couldn’t follow a rule She turned to drugs a way of escape Lying in the gutter mouth agape Needed grace Eight months pregnant lying in the rain The agony hitting her again and again How did I get here who am I broken and torn Emotions run deep the shame the scorn Alone and afraid the answer was clear End it end it all right now right here Enters grace Excruciating pain a feeble but gut wrenching shout Then alone and with child she passed out Somebody maybe an angel saw her lying there Pitiful only a young girl desperately needing care Paramedics came what an amazing statement Mother alive baby born crying on a pavement How many of us experienced this back against the wall No way out considered maybe even decided, end it all Sufficient grace Note from the author.
