YESTERDAY A BABY
Silversnake

Yesterday a baby was born.
His eyes glistened with a beautiful blue.
It's hard to believe that he died three months later,
Without knowing how to walk or talk.
He may have been very small,
But the love that everybody has for him can overflow all the water of the world.
A baby is a very special thing.
It's sad when they have to die without being one year old.
Hopefully, he will be born in the same age he died in.
