Unheard Plea


A child's picture in a frame sits alone. a wornout shoe carelessly thrown. Clothes scattered,no one to attend, Little dress torn,nobody to mend. Playing in garbage, hungry not fed, neglected and abused,no words said. Wanting to be held,save and warm. hidden away daily ,by people who harm. She waits hoping her father will come, all hesitating not wanting to be the one. Praying its not too late when they see? no one answered the little girls plea!
