The Lost Child
Cold chills run down my spine
The sensation is hiding the pain
The child wants to play
Time is long since past that day
Tears roll down the frozen face
Wanting warmth, hope,and faith
Longing for something to hold on to
Yet only emptiness awaits
Hope is just a word
No depth, no meaning, no soul
Grasping for a single tread
Something to fill the void
I want the child to live again
To feel,to laugh,to smile,to love
I try to reach deep inside
Once again to hope for a better tomorrow

Wanda, That is absolutely beautiful...full of meaning and feeling and down right touching.
Thank you for sharing so much of your soul!
The picture alone make me want to comfort and love this child.
I really like this poem. Especially the second and third stanzas. For some reason they speak to me. You are a very talented lady, Wanda. And creative!
Wishing you well,

And praying for His healing to help you find what was lost...God bless you sister. Be strong in the Lord's mighty power.
