Yesterday's Child Morning rays upon a tear stained face Revealed another sleepless night Her thoughts of her three year old child She longed to see with all her might Just who could have taken her little boy And where did they plan to hide him What was behind their insane scheme And would the police be able to find them No fame or fortune did they possess Fresh tears flowed down upon her face Just how could this have happened To have lost him without a trace So many times she had heard on the news A child being reported as missing But not once thinking it would ever be hers She never gave much thought to listening It had happened just barely two nights ago After tucking him safe in his bed Reading a fairy tale story to him Hugging and kissing his curly head That morning as the alarm awakened her She felt it was very strange indeed Why was he not standing by her bed Saying, 'Mommy it's breakfast I need' Sensing right away that something was wrong She raced to his room down the hall Fighting back tears now flooding her eyes As her baby boy's name she did call Their time is spent in tormenting hours While they pray for a call with good news Will they ever find her precious little boy And will the search turn up any clues Tonight as you put your child to bed Check all windows, doors, and locks We must guard and protect our children When evildoers come to knock Janie Moser © 08/12/05 I build and maintain web sites at reasonable and affordable prices.
