    "Missing"
    My milk has a face
    Have you seen me before
    Sometimes I see that face
    On TV or hanging on a bulletin board
    Each time I see that face
    It is different from before
    Faces from many different states
    Most of them I adore
    Have you seen me
    If you have I implore
    That you contact my parents, authorities, or more
    I want to go home
    I don’t want to be missing anymore
    I want to heal my family’s heart
    And walk through those doors

    Until I saw a documentary about it, I had no idea how many children go missing every day, all over the world. It's beyond tragic; It's frightening! 10 for calling attention to a critical situation!

    I have often thought of the families behind the faces. It's always heartbreaking.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
