To see your children you poured your heart and soul into, taken apart bit by bit with worldly views and outside influences... can be devastating. Especially seeing traditional family values becoming nearly extinct by the minute. Let us not allow our children to go the way of the damned, by a dictatorship designed and named “free choice,” when all it is, a net of induced rebellion. Save your children one child at a time. One Child.

ONE CHILD

One child one chance, to get it right,
To love each child with all your might,
To show God's love, His light, and truth,
To set the stage for a future for our youth.

To inspire to aspire to the opened door,
of the path of their leading, to rise to and soar.
Let not one child fall through the cracks,
Keep straight and clear the narrow tracks,

The trail of destiny each child should heed,
By example, each one of us should lead.
It takes one to build, or destroy a land.
So let's first put each child in God’s capable hands.

So that every child that would be lost,
Would be the one child saved, whatever the cost.
With unity of family being there,
The family of those showing care.

They say it takes a village to raise a child, 
but it also takes one flame to burn a forest wild.,
Someone said, “Can’t we all just get along,
For the sake of one child not going wrong?”

One child.

The children are indeed our future. I believe that the family is the all important factor and if that breaks down so does society.In some places this is all too evident.Thank you Lovie for this inspiring piece and the wisdom and care you display through your words.

Lovie, at no time in history is this poem more important than right now. Let's save them one child at a time, by unifying the families.
