CAN YOU LEND A HELPING HAND?
IT IS SUCH A DEMAND.
~
CAN YOU OPEN UP YOUR EYES?
IT WILL BE NO SUPRISE.
~
CAN YOU OPEN UP YOUR HEART?
WE NEED ALL TO TAKE PART.
~CHILDREN~
THEY ARE DEPENDING ON US;
DEPENDING ON US TO GIVE THEM LOVE.
THEY ARE COUNTING ON US;
COUNTING ON US TO SHOW THEM THE WAY.
SO
WITHOUT
DELAY...
~
CAN YOU STOP THE ABUSE?
IT IS NOT OF ANY USE
~
CAN YOU STOP THE IMPRISONMENT?
THIS IS NOT THE HOUSING THEY MEANT.
~
CAN YOU NOT STARVE THEM?
FOOD IS WHAT THEY NEED TO GROW;
YOU KNOW.
~
CUZ SOMEDAY THESE LITTLE PRESIOUS GIFTS WILL SOON BE ALL GROWN UP.
TAKING CARE OF US,
RUNNING OUR COUNTRY,
AND
TENDING OUR LAND.
SO
UNITED WE SHOULD STAND IN TAKING CARE OF OUR...
~CHILDREN~
PLEASE DON'T HESITATE THIS IS THEIR FAIT.
SO MAKE MY DAY.
TAKE CARE OF THEM IN A LOVING WAY.
CAN YOU VOW TO DO THIS?
IT IS MY WISH.
I like when you get away from your rhyming to the heart of what you're saying. I love people, especially children, and I don't believe in anyone being abused. Hopefully this dream will be a reality and we can smile knowing we helped obtain it.
another very good poem, keep writing!
