tiny & faultless

Sleeping peacefully
there you are.
Almost perfect
your face from afar.
A hushed, soft bundle
so tiny, so innocent.
Precious little one
danger so imminent.
You capture so many hearts
your dainty hands and toes.
Priceless beauty
a touching moment froze.
From cradle, to mobile.
Life's first cry to a
heart wrenching goodbye.
Delicate and calm
They rip you from the womb.
Where you were knit....
now unable to bloom.
    They crush you
          They shame you
                No desire to claim you
Your inconvenient.
Your considered disgrace
Your a selfish throwaway
Your a memory they can't face
How can they take such a trusting soul?
When will they see this special one whole?

"Just as you do not know the path of the wind
and how bones are formed in the womb of
the pregnant woman, so you do not know the
activity of God who makes all things."
~Ecclesiates 11:5
