Array ( [sid] => 56987 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => K. P. [time] => 2004-07-20 23:50:12 [hometext] => Most poets write about what they know ~ what they feel ~ what they observe. This poem is no different. I dedicated it to the little girl it's about... [bodytext] => Big brown eyes and a little round face,
A beautiful smile that radiates grace,
Long dark hair down her back,
She lives in a world under attack,
No bombs or guns are in her world,
Only words are being hurled.
Her mom and dad argue and fight,
So she cries on these nights,
She don't understand what she hears,
But the fighting instills fear,
Then she gets a belly ache,
How much more can a little girl take?

God bless this baby with the big brown eyes,
Hold her close when she cries,
Protect her from the hurt she knows,
Give her strength and wisdom as she grows,
Hold her hand all through her days,
Let her keep her childhood ways,
Give her peace in her family ties,
Take away her questions "why",
Please stay with her and hold her hand,
Because her world is a scary land,
Help her family to find away,
To save their family from decay,
~ A mom ~ A dad ~ A little girl ~
Let happiness rein in their world.

It is so sad when adults do not stop to consider what their words and actions do to the little ones. It takes so little to upset their little worlds and psyches. Care should be taken.

I love the opening line and am touched by the piece as a whole. It is a lovely prayer, though heartbreaking in its clarity and relatability.

Best wishes the little one with big brown eyes,
