It was an ordinary day ,in every way
I made you your breakfast
But you chucked it away.?

Putting your coat on in silence...
You closed the front door
  I didn’t think then
I wouldn’t see you anymore
  
You went to the park instead of work.
At the end of this day
A mother would hurt..
For you would ****** a child
You’d studied for weeks
Chatting away to them
And giving them sweets..

Until one day.....
You could stand it no more
And you grabbed her hand
Then started to walk..
  
Your car was parked at the end of the road..
The child was content..
In fact quite composed..
But she would be of course..
As she knew you well..
Knew the line of you face
Because you’d groomed her so well..
She put her little hand in yours
Totally trusting
And so in awe..
  
The police car drew up
At the house by the park
Where a little girl was snatched
Before it went dark..
How many people were in the park today?
When a child was abducted
And taken away...

He stood at the door as he showed me his badge..
And looking back now..
Thought he looked rather sad..
“Have you seen your husband?
Do you know where he is”?
“ we need to question him?
“ urgently” you said..
“ he’s at work?
Why wouldn’t he be”?( l said)
“ and later he’ll be home
And I will cook our tea”...
“ what’s this about”?
I said...
“ what has he done”?
“ A child’s been abducted from the park today”
7 years old and tiny for her age..
“ we just want to question him at this stage”
( you said)
“ do you mind If we wait until he gets back?”
But by then you would have smothered her
In a rented flat..
Disposed of her body in a plastic sack
And driven away...
At the end of what started
As an ordinary day......
