Wishes Cried For Wanted Child! Poem by Stevie Taite

Wishes Cried For Wanted Child!

Rating: 4.5


The wishes that are washed in tears
Are for a pitied child
Who knows no love and warmth of heart
I wish this reconciled

The wishes bathed in helpless brine
Do ask the reaper why
They come for child with future bright?
I wish they did not die

The wishes leaving salted trails
Are laid with grief profound
My empathy, in sorrow shared
I wish for comfort found!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Some children are not wanted and some are, so badly! This makes me so sad and I wish It did not happen this way!

It is something of an anachronism that sometimes those with the least ability to love their children breed the most.
