When A Child Is Born
If you ever wonder why I say our children do not belong to just us.... perhaps these words will help... Our child is hope to us... and to the world... in our children... the miracles of tomorrow... so when they die... they die not only to us but to the whole world... My heart is sad tonight thinking about the family members who are unable to sleep... wondering how they find themselves here at this hour grieving for loved ones they will never see... never hear... never touch again in this life.. I am so sorry... It is small comfort... I am sorry your child died... your loss is a loss to all of us... When A Child Is Born ... A ray of hope flitters in the sky A shiny star lights up way up high All across the land dawns a brand new morn This comes to pass when a child is born A silent wish sails the seven seas The winds have changed whisper in the trees And the walls of doubt crumble tossed and torn This comes to pass when a child is born A rosy hue settles all around You've got the feel you're on solid ground For a spell or two no-one seems forlorn This comes to pass when a child is born (Spoken) And all of this happened Because the world is waiting Waiting for one child Black, white, yellow, no one knows But a child that would grow up and turn tears to laughter Hate to love, war to peace And everyone to everyone's neighbor Misery and suffering would be forgotten forever It's all a dream and illusion now It must come true, sometimes soon somehow All across the land dawns a brand new morn This comes to pass when a child is born All across the land dawns a brand new morn This comes to pass when a child is born When a child is born

Oh Elissa, this is beautiful and touches my heart deeply. Thank you.
Yes! I love these words. I feel that no matter how long a child is with us, their life touches this world and makes it a better place. I feel that about all of our children here on this site. Love and Hugs, Anne
Many points to ponder in this. Thank you for sharing.
