Every Once
in a VERY LONG while
Every once in a Very LONG while
Long walked along the long road
Widely wandering with wanderlust
Wildly wondering in the wild-wild whirl
**
Because
**
Every once in a very LONG while
Long shuffled along the short shore
Sweetly sweeping by swallows
Swiftly swimming by swans
It was just that ...
***
Every once in a Very LONG while
Long longed for the long lane
Lengthily lingering tracks of trains
Lastingly long-winded bracks of brains
***
Every once in a VERY LONG while
Long longs for the open
Every once in a VERY LONG while

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.
