Another daughter, another day

Another daughter, another day. Another daughter another day At 6 her life was taken away. Another day another daughter, from her there will be no more laughter. Her mother’s addiction is no fiction. She chose a life of drugs and living with thugs. She sold her daughter. From Joshlin there will be no more laughter Her big beautiful green eyes will never blink again. Her mother sold her so she can buy drugs again. She was so young and adorable. Yet so young and vulnerable She has been robbed of a life, Her mother has sold her like honey in a hive. Never will she grow up and have kids Her mother has sealed her lips. In memory of Joshlin Smith

So very sad. How the devil likes to get his hands on the young and vulnerable. Hands off in the name of Jesus Christ. Thank you for remembering Joshlin. We must never forget. God bless you, Andre.

Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
