Not a Toy

Life’s gift he received,
 
A toy to play thought to be-
 

Heavens were let down!

Yes, it is. Anne-Lise! Here, however, the point is that each one of us comes to life with a specific mission, if we do not honor our mission then we betray the one who gave us the gift of life: God! Thank you dearest for your visit and constructive comment!
