[bodytext] => God’s Little Angels ~~~ You never asked to be brought here Into a world that doesn’t care Who doesn’t hear the cries of a child Who turns away when the sounds too loud Your teachers have eyes, yet they pretend to not see The bruised arms, the swollen knees Your neighbors have ears, yet they pretend to not hear The yelling at night, the sobbing of fear All the agencies that are suppose to protect Fail to recognize these acts of neglect Too often these children slip through the cracks Due to the failure of someone to react So the abuse goes on with no apparent end Brought upon the small, too weak to defend But soon precious child, your wings would have grown And God will be able to call you home To the gardens of peace, to the shores of no pain Where God’s little angels can live and reign [comments] => 1 [counter] => 160 [topic] => 32 [informant] => Jeff_Scott_Morehead [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )
