Some Stillborn Child
Some Stillborn Child
Always seemed to be so sad
About someone I never had
Before and not here anymore;
Now can't open or shut a door.
Where could my child have gone;
Why did God bring this upon?
Me and would have to suffer so;
Not see a face that likes to glow.
Child once had been a part of me;
Soul floating in air finally free;
Will miss him or her very much;
Only for second I wanted to touch.
No! Child forever is incomplete,
From head's top to bottom of feet;
Outside day's weather is kind of fair;
Child's in heaven now high up there.
Could that be a boyfriend instead
He was in an accident and is dead,
To forget there is never any way
Another prayer for him started to say.
James Thomas Horn, Retired Veteran
