A Mother Weeps

A Mother Weeps (Murder of a little girl)

The sun has set on natural affection
When a mother kills a very young
A innocent little girl taken as she skipped
Unaware of pending danger

Being made in God’s image
No one discerned this violent nature
Of a playmate’s sadistic mother
Against a child that was so precious

A little girl slepted in death by the riverside
Down the road not far from her home
Discarded as waste inside a suitcase
After suffering unimaginable rape and murder

A mother weeps for her child
She's unconsolable
The fruit of her belly ripped away
By a cruel Sunday school teacher

Thanks for commenting and voting. Ideas just appear in my head and burn until I decide to write. I saw the news of families sitting in the church with sad faces and the ideas just started flowing as I begin to write. ~~~~~~~~~ Be whoever you are At all times, and Remember that Because of this, people will Always Respect, and Admire you ©2008Leonard Respectfully Yours, Barbara

the suffer of the innocence

I always said if you can make it to eighteen or around there you have counquered the curve of the animal hunger and not all come unscathed beatings sexual abuse emotional abuse and murder always murder of children the weakest defenceless exposed by trust in a society that wants to believe in ideals of a safe god fearing loving world but it is not so I see the animals feel them have known a few the laws that slap them on the wrists and return them safe in at least knowing who they are but the ones unknown like the sunday school woman jealous or god knows what that just took this girls life our media full of the worship of death the love of gore in our wars we conquer and kill maim and blow each other up men and women now unending I heard about this and watched this on the news And the other one kaylee so horrible and sad Man is so capable of all if we truelly think its so hideous to do this we are blind we are in history rife with this we must just be versed and aware and keep our children close enough aware of dangers what more can we do so sad Great poem commentary about this Barbara

I always enjoy reading your lengthy comments. Thanks for commenting and for the awesome vote. the many gods of this world promotes death and gore I agree is all over the media influencing people. i have hope in the one and only true God in the heavens and believe he will end wickedness soon. The curve of the animal hunger sounds like a great title, and the beginning of a great poem. ~~~~~~~~~ Be whoever you are At all times, and Remember that Because of this, people will Always Respect, and Admire you ©2008Leonard Respectfully Yours, Barbara
