Mystery Unsolved

Mystery Unsolved She disappeared aged 3. Everyone looked for her. People went from shop to shop asking have you seen this girl? No was the reply. Others searched woodland, fields, by the river. Soon people all over the country joined the hunt for the missing child. No luck. It was like she never existed. Her parents never gave up hope nor stopped looking. 3 dates are the worst: the anniversary of her disappearance, her birthday and Xmas. 14 years later she's still missing. No one has spotted her. She'd be 17 now. Almost an adult. But she's a statistic. A 3 year old girl missing 14 years. Her picture on milk cartons. Mystery unsolved.
