Used and Abused Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION
by Mervis4uonnet, Nigeria Jul 7, 2007
Human Rights   Poetry

  

Dejected and rejected, they are
Innocent and ignorant, they are crushed
Softly weeping, quietly groaning
They are used and abused,
Intelligent and humble, the future leaders
Hardworking and diligent, our pride
Yet they are trampled on
By vicious beasts who are satisfied
With their wailing and longings.


They did not beg to be born
Yet they wish to be loved
Knowledge seeks them and they want to learn to
Yet there lies great obstacles in their way
Let’s make these stumbling blocks,
Stepping stones for their sakes.
So that our future will be secure,
And we may have literate leaders, tomorrow.
