Another Child Dying


Another child
A brother
A sister
A son
A daughter
Exploring the world
Defining what's all real
From make believe life they dream
Young and innocent
So many imagined what the future might be
What's beyond the school age zone
Entering into the world unknown
Making way through all journeys of life
What's on their mind
Trapped in a world
Expanding technology
Changing in time
Yet another child is dying
A brother
A sister
A son
A daughter
What's on their mind
Trapped in a world
Expanding technology
Changing in time
Yet no safe keeping
Another child with no safe schooling
To expand their mind
To keep up with changing time
Another child dying
From Columbine
From Virginia Tech
Crowded city schools
Small country school nobody knew
Another child with
Shattered dreams
Angels came upon them
Giving each child their wings.
