my father once told me about a lady.
he prayed this lady would bare a child.
she was in her forties.

when she found she was pregnant
she became overjoyed.
after 20 years of trying
she was finally going to start a family.

the baby was born sick,
the mother's body was not in shape to nurture a baby.
this made the father go mad,
because he loved a baby
he knew he would soon bury.
