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 chance, one life, to get it right, To love each child with all your might, To show God's love, His light, and truth, To invest godliness within our youth. To heed the call the opened door, To protect and save one child, one more. 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. Put the lives of our children in God’s hands. That very child that would be lost, If not for many hearts to share the cost. With unity of family being there, A strong family foundation will show you care. They say it takes a village to raise a child, but only one flame can burn a forest wild., Someone said, “Can’t we all just get along, For the sake of one child not going wrong?” Let’s stop the blaming and keep families strong, For 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.
