Excellent A tragic child abduction.... ~ R.I.P. Little Jessica ~ by Heidixoxo Empathy with Grief writing prompt entry

Off to school that chilly fall day Planning to meet friends along the way The little blonde girl with a smile so bright Skipping and singing in the early dawn light An Amber Alert started with beeps so loud Getting the attention of many as they formed a crowd A child is missing and we don't know where to start The police feared a predator pretending to be smart That was the day it all turned to fright People began searching from morning to night Sweet lil' Jessica never made it to her class Fear, prayers and strength the search was a mass It was called an abduction to say the least The entire community was far from at peace Her Mommy and Daddy cried to just let her go free While the community hung purple ribbons on the fall colored trees The search continued with no Jessica insight Still searching and praying all day and night FBI and Police giving updates all about town We all vowed to search until this child was found Six days missing and Jessica is still not home Then the announcement came on t.v., radios and phones A small child's body was found not far away It was not intact so please at your posts stay It was little Jessica's body that they had now found Everyone was silent except tears as they hit the ground So little and young, innocent, sweet and now dead The person who did this is very disturbed up in the head In Heaven now is forever where Jessica will be A tiny little angel with wings for all to see No longer afraid of the devil that stole her life We'll never stop searching for the one who caused strife Writing Prompt Write a poem of any style that shows empathy for the grief of another human being.
