They Did Not Get a Chance to |
By Dena Pierce, 1989 |
They did not get a chance to
grow or feel the sun upon their face. They did not get a chance to count the stars so far in space. They did not get a chance to eat a piece of birthday cake. They did not get a chance to wade in a sandy bottom lake. They are the little babies everywhere whose lives were taken away. They have moms and dads who love them and remember them every day. We take a day to celebrate and to shed some tears, For all the little babies who have died throughout the years. For all the parents whose hearts were broken from the loss of their little one, We take time to remember with you your daughter or your son. Parents throughout this great big world who share a common pain; Their babies have died, their joy is gone but the memories remain. Help us now to make a stand throughout all our nation, As we remember all of our babies in this celebration. |
