A Parents Love

A raging river fills up again with the tears that have falling,
a voice rings out loud in fear, as her mother is heard calling,
another child has been lost and can't be found anywhere at all,
with no steps to be traced another poster is placed on the wall,
time passes on and all hope seems lost with no word on her case,
as a father looks for his little girl, can't find her any place,
years go by the tears begin to dry like a drought upon the skin,
as the front door opens she's standing there waiting to come in,
all grown up now no longer that little girl she'd been back then,
she clears her throat to tell her parents just where she has been,
I was lost to a world of darkness found my way back into the light,
by looking up and praying to my lord in heaven each and every night,
it was my Lord who had found me lying there my heart all ripped and torn, that reminded me how blessed I had been to have such loving and caring parents to whom I had been born...
