Unfolding before me a saga <br />Tragedy untold <br />The miracle of life begins <br />The body soon goes cold <br />How is it that a star can shine <br />Above the brutal world <br />When beneath its light <br />A child can pass on <br />A little boy or girl <br />The battle raging <br />On this rugged land <br />To cruel to be <br />A child is born <br />A child is lost <br />A life that will not be <br />Torn from his mothers womb <br />An innocent life is stole <br />Before his first cry rings out <br />A tragedy untold <br />Indigo the color of <br />This limp and supple babe <br />It came to late to save him <br />The one who bore his name <br />Mother, tear upon her cheek <br />Looks up to woman there <br />And sobbing she names the child <br />The same name the woman bares <br />Ten years on the mother <br />Still mourns the loss of one <br />There was never another <br />To take that one childs love <br />An untold tragedy<br /><br />nikki hays<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/untold-tragedy/
