This post has been published by me as a part of the Blog-a-Ton 40; the fortieth edition of the online marathon of Bloggers; where we decide and we write. To be part of the next edition, visit and start following Blog-a-Ton. The theme for the month is "MAKE A WISH"
Make a wish so that
the young and innocent remain so
their bright smiles touching our hearts
their playfulness making us laugh
Make a wish so that
they are not abused
not stripped off their liveliness
let their eyes sparkle and not
bend down with pain & shame
Make a wish so that
all children get equal right
Right to education...to live
Let them breathe, just let them be
Make a wish so that
people rejoice a SHE
let her hold your hand
let her be a daddy's girl
She will stay by you till the end.
Make a wish so that
their future is secure
their hearts are filled with love
not bearing scars of broken trust
Make a wish so that
they get to hear fairy tales
and get kissed good night
not cornered up or beaten up
no nightmares they should see
Make a wish so that
the little buds flower up
to spread joy in abundance
Children are God's Gift, cherish them thus.
