THE DRUNKEN DRIVER👫

FallenAngel1🕊

Friends,there's something been haunting me that i just have to tell. I saw an accident one day that would chill the heart of anyone,women or man,and teach them not to drink a drop while the steering wheel is in their hand.

this awful accident happened on the 20th day of May,and caused two dear little children to be sleeping beneath the clay. These two little kids walked side by side along the state highway. Their poor mother,she had died and their daddy had run away.

As these two little kids walked arm in arm,how sad their hearts did feel,when around the corner came a speeding car with a drunk man at the wheel. The drunk man saw the two little kids and hollered a drunken sound,"get out of the road you little fools,and the car had struck them down.

The bumper struck the little girl,taking her life away,while the little boy in a puddle of blood,in a ditch,laying there,did lay. The drunk man staggered from his car to see the damage he had done,He let out a cry you could hear for miles as he recognized his dyeing son. 

Such mourning from a drunken man,I've never seen before,while kneeling at the running board,he prayed to heavens door. "Oh God,please forgive me for this awful crime I have done",and his attention was then turned away by the words of his dyeing son.

"Daddy,why did you do this to us? How come you ran us down to the ground? It was you and mommy we were talking about when the car had brought us down. I was just telling little sister that I knew we would see you again someday,but daddy why did it have to be this way? Why did it have to be like this? Why daddy? Why?"
