Quietly He Came
Quietly he came and saw what others overlooked
His eyes dancing with laughing merriment
Flickering with anguished sadness
A spirited fascination drawing her in
Like the moth dancing round the flame
With loving sternness tearing at the walls
Opening the darkness of gaping wounds and childhood lost
His own pain and fear buried deep
In a myriad of mystery and silence
Loving words and caresses soothing the fearful child
A budding trust replacing the doubts
Opening her eyes and guiding her forward
To see a future of joy and happiness and love
