Our Silence

In the arms of a mother a baby lies

awakened to life in despair.

With pinkies and coke

his mothers milk choked,

her addicted embrace is his care.

In the arms of a father a little girl lay

overcome by his strength and his power.

She had to give him what lovers should offer

and listen to words of "Don't say"

In the crutches of life, the children hang helpless

and adults turn deaf ears away.

Oh, God! help the witness

not to suffer the stillness

In Jesus Name, this I will pray.
