Little girl walking crossed my path today........


                                        Little girl lost.....


                        Little girl walking
                     crossed my path today.
                        Stopped, looked up
                    quickly went on her way.


                       Windblown dark hair
                    much in need of a brush.
                  First walking, then running
                        why in such a rush?


                       Her clothing was dirty
                        she had but one shoe.
                  Looked up at me I could see,
                  she had piercing eyes of blue.


                         Her face was riddled
                           with dirt and tears.
                            I wiped her eyes
                        tried to calm her fears.


                               Picked her up
                      brought her into my house.
                          She looked all around
                        but sat quiet as a mouse.


                       A glass of chocolate milk
                     carefully placed on the table.
                          Fixed her a sandwich
              tell me your name when you are able.


                          While she was eating
                   walked outside, looked around.
                      There is a school behind us
                  did she walk off the playground?


                         I noticed a car circling
                              driving very slow.
                         Looking for a little girl,
                    she is missing did you know?


                        When they described her
                     I asked them to pull around.
                The little girl they are looking for,
                        I told them I have found.


                          Her mother was happy
                     cried all the way to the door.
                     When she saw her daughter,
                    she picked her up off the floor.


                           Holding her daughter
                                 so terribly tight.
                      Guess it must have given her
                               a horrifying fright.


                             Put up a pot of coffee,
                         let her mother settle down.
                   Gave the girl a scoop of ice cream,
                          all smiles, no more frown.

Beautiful...and such a miracle that she did cross your path.
A blessing that it was you that was able to shelter from the harm that could have faced her.
Another heavenly reward~THANK YOU!

Sincerely,
