All I Ask

A little child came up to me And asked if I could find, Her ma and pa who had gone away, And left this girl behind. She said please mister help me, I need them to come back, I want someone to hold me To soothe my aching heart. As I look down at that poor child, Whom not of many years And in her Face so plain to see, Her eyes so full of tears. So if you left this child behind, She needs you to come back. She only wants to have your love Not be a rod upon your back. I couldn't help that little girl, But I hope one day she will find, Her ma and pa who went away And left this child behind!

A very nice poem, I feel the emotion. I can relate to this story so much. My mam left home when I was 13 we don't blame her or anything and she later died of cancer so it was like loosing her twice. My father died 23 hours after I gave birth 28 years this august. I wrote a prayer poem for my mother. And poems for dad too.n

Oh that is so sad, I could see her little sad eyes as I was reading. Abandonment is a cruel and scarring rejection. Hope she found her parents. Emilia : )
