Life almost gone
Stresss, and distress camped
Peace and solace departed
Love had wings
Flew like a pigeon

Dragged to the deepest sea
The storm terrible and strong
Friends nowhere be seen
Holding the little heart
Sinking slowly to the bottom

A voice from nowhere
Loud and promising
'Daughter of the great father'
Where are you heading

No response back, but a smile
Filled with joy and laughter
Promising and life giving
Tears of joy flowing like the two rivers
River Tigris and Euphrates
