Sweet little girl



Sweet little girl,
 Where could she be?
 Abducted after school,
 Her future the parents might not ever see.

Gone in an instant,
 To much for a mother to bear,
 Waking up every morning,
 To realize her chilld is not there.

Sweet little girl,
 Where could she be?
 No longer in yard,
 Playing happy and free.

Her precious voice,
 A family doesen't hear.
 A child abduction
 Is a parentd worst fear.

Sweet little girl,
 Who is to blame?
 To commit such a crime,
 It is truly a shame.

Her family has gathered,
 Grieving and awaiting a call,
 There is nothing left,
 Besides a picture upon the wall.
