Sticks and Stones

That little kid stood by

the lake, not knowing what

step to take.

His father fed him to the

wild, an innocent boy, a child.

He threw rocks and stones, killing

the time all alone.

A man came by and took him in,

he was never mean or commited a sin.

Treated him like his and raised him up,

filled his heart his broken cup.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Thinking of the kids with no one to guide. It makes tears slide.
