I'll lend you for a little time,
A child of mine he said.
For you to love there as he lives,
And mourn when he is dead.

It may be six or seven years,
Or twenty two or three.
But will you, 'til I call him back,
Take care of him for me?

He'll bring his charms to gladden you,
And shall his stay be brief.
You'll have his lovely memories,
As solace for your grief.

I cannot promise he will stay,
Since all from earth return.
But there are lessons taught down there,
I want this child to learn.

I've searched the wide world over,
In my search for teachers true.
And from the throngs that crowd life's lanes,
I have selected you.

Now will you give him all your love,
Nor think the labor vain.
Nor hate me when I come to call,
To take him back again?

I fancied that I heard them say,
Dear Lord, thy will be done.
For all the joy thy child shall bring,
The risk of grief we'll run.

We'll shelter him with tenderness,
We'll love him while we may.
And for the happiness we've known,
Will ever grateful stay.

But shall the angels call for him,
Much sooner than we planned.
We'll brave the bitter grief that comes,
.....And try to understand.

That was beautiful.

That was blatantly stolen.

QFT. I've read a lot of poetry/stories/etc here, but ones which were postings of actual poems by other people, the poster has ALWAYS had reference to the original author/poet. aleerpoftware, you didn't have a mention to the original poet and, in a sense, tired to make out as if this was your own. Can you spell/understand: Plagiarism?
