One Another by Linda V

One born in a home, to welcoming hands and gentle faces

Another born in a burned out car, abandoned in a field

One raised with his mother and siblings in a home filled with love

Another fighting for food, fighting for warmth, fighting for life

One watches each of this siblings leave for other homes with happy strangers

Another watches his brother, then his sister, then his mother wither away

One plays with toys and gets love from all around him

Another plays with metal shards in the discarded car

One lives out his days in happiness while the children around him grow

Another struggles every day, never even knowing the feeling of grass on his feet

Both leave this world and carry on over the rainbow bridge

One finds another and then run together with all the others

Into the field of dreams, the soft grass and endless love they all deserve
