On my way to work this morning...

Left for my office, a little bit late... Saw next-door neighbour, standing at gate. "Hello, Brian, what a surprise..." Then I saw the pain in his eyes! The sirens had stopped, folks milled around... In refuse bin a live baby'd been found! Right on our doorstep...the thought made me sick... Who did this deed? what makes them tick! Throughout the horror of this day, For stricken child hard I did pray! What are its chances, should it survive? In this sick world, better dead than alive? Tales such as this are commonplace... Till it hits you, right in your face! I love my work, but today its a grind... Just cannot get that kid off my mind! A happy ending? I really don't know... Over the moon, if that were just so! Thanks for your patience...just had to share These feelings with some who may hopefully care!
