Sick Child
Forehead as hot as a newly lit fire.
Aches and pains running through his head.
I'm holding him, trying to comfort him as much as I can,
Nothing is working, nothing is helping.
Cough and wheezing,
as he lay his head down to go to sleep,
I put a cold cloth on his head,
trying not make a sound or a peep.
What an evil presence that has overcome his body,
what gives god the right to do this do a child.
Filled with love and faith,
Not a bad bone in their body.
Yet is seems like a punishment comes upon them,
When the secretions begin to spread.
Leave my baby alone, dear presence of sickness,
I shall take fault for all wrong doings.
Come upon me with those ill feelings,
Let my baby, laugh, play, and enjoy, in peace.
