The h2g2 Poem

Why?
Thick brown hair
Coating such a small head
Why?
Tiny fingers
Small nails perfectly rounded
Why?
Please grasp my hand
Wrap those fingers round
Why?
Tiny button nose
Please breathe in
Why?
Ruby red lips
Please cry out
Why?
Why was my special wee man
Never allowed to see the sun
Never allowed to feel his mummies kiss
Never able to sit on daddies knee
Why?
If there is a god
Why did he take my wee man?
Why did this happen
Why was he never given a chance?
Why?
He will live on forever
In the hearts of the people who loved him
His mum, dad and grandparents
No one will ever answer
Why?
