A Child Lamb is Sleeping

Contributed by Valerie_Pearson on Monday, 9th February 2004 @ 12:10:02 AM in AEST
Topic: Grief



In quiet garden bright beyond,
amidst the grass so soft and sweet,
~~~~ a child lamb is sleeping ~~~~

O' cherished child, in veiled youth,
amidst the night of crossing come,
a slayer lurking in the breath,
using the sword of his smooth tongue,

Hence' her innocence without a stain,
he snatched her veil, the greatest shame,
fierce, cruel and filled of strife,
with his sword he sought her life,

The fate of thee, O' cherished child,
upon a road so cold and dark,
his secret told upon a screen,
a slayer of ruthless heart,

In quiet garden bright beyond,
admidst the grass so soft and sweet,
~~~~ a child lamb is sleeping ~~~~

It is hard to understand why God lets demons like this walk the earth. The loss of a child is hard enough, but to know they suffered so is unbearable for the ones that loved her. The fires of Hell will be his eternal salvation. Beautifully penned although heartbreaking.
