Forsaken

I was cradled in her arms I rested on her breast I listened to her heartbeat It soothed me when I cried Yet for all these nurturing things God has given to mankind They can still forsake the little ones Life to them has bestowed But God declares- Yes they may forget, But little ones who come to me I shall never ever forget- Their names are written On my nail torn hands. ©?
