Every Child Crys

18 Jan 2023 8:12 AM A sad sweet story of lifes strange path Twists and turns hills and vales, love and wrath Born into a quiet room then a flood of light A breath is taken and every child cries Hunger, fevers and dirty diapers And every child cries Growing walking developing while falling And every child cries Learning discerning loving and failing And every child cries Leaving succeeding and birthing their own And every child cries Ageing and rearing and loving and careing And every child cries Declining and dieing and no longer crying Still every child cries
