Anne Frank's Kaleidoscopic Life

At 13, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed Brimming with youth and flamboyance. With a myriad of of vying admirers, A family to love and to be loved back. Her life was a blend of love,laughter and rebellion. Then,all of a sudden, Dragged out of the felicity of her childhood. Stripped off her citizenship and freedom For Anne was born a Jew--an outcast. Suffered owing to the sanguinary Fuhrer. The Devil, he surpassed. To escape the bloody clutches of Hitler Into hiding ,they went But never did Anne let her hope perish In the two years of lonely confinement. Two years of struggle to cope with adults. Two years of struggle with food and supplies With the thrills of love and pangs of goodbyes Hope was her strongest weapon To combat severe isolation and oppression. Eternal hope kept her alive. Courageous Anne continued to strive. Her eyes could penetrate into the deeper meanings of life. The pulchritude of relationships The sublimity of nature The plenitude of being Life's purpose and importance Demystified. Alas! Betrayed by a close friend Resulted in Anne Frank's tragic end. The blood red hue of autumnal leaves Stained the Earth , as the nature grieved. - Angom Amy (15)
