For the love our children!

Below is a very moving and poignant poem written by Teresa Harrsion-Best, which speaks out for the children who are caught up in war zones today …

For the love our children!

For the love of the children, please stop this.

For the love the children desist.

For the love of the children, just listen.

For the love of the children, resist.

No child should witness such bloodshed,

No child should fear for their life.

No child should dread further bombings,

No child should understand strife.

The children will carry this burden,

The children will never forget.

The children will one day be adults,

The children will learn from your threat.

No child should wear scars of damage,

No child should taste their own blood.

No child should see pain as a future,

No child should lay wounded in mud.

For the love of the children show mercy,

for the love of the children please vow.

For the love of the children give pity

For the love of the children cease now.
