Look Closer!!

We think children dont listen
We think children dont see
We disqualify their presence
but when we watch carefully...
Watch the intensity in their eyes...
We see a deeper truth..
A story not yet told
A story unfolding withouth pen and paper
A story of hope, strength and passion for survival
For you...
Its a picture of hopelessness
To them..
Its one day at a time...
Each day with hope and plan for their families,
They suspect YOU and your intentions....
But they know where they 'stand'....
A future hope for my continent... a story not yet told for each child
Whether orphaned by AIDS or been part of trauma related to war and abuse..
Those deeper resilences are yet to be unseen by the common eye...
Watch again next time....
Look closer.....
