Who will love the children <br /> when something does go wrong? <br /> Who will soothe their many fears? <br /> Who will sing them a song? <br /> <br /> Who will tell the children, that <br /> it is alright for them to dry, <br /> When someone tries to hurt them <br /> their fears they need not hide. <br /> <br /> Who will see their innocence, is that <br /> of a dove, <br /> Who will ask the question, who can <br /> take advantage of a sweet child's love? <br /> <br /> (written in memory of all the abused and molested children who were afraid to tell.)<br /><br />Dena C.
