- Haiku X 45 - Earth's Children -

Rights to care and health
 Ebola - child is orphan
 A safe hand to hold 

 Long dark eyelashes
 Protect my little angel 
 God will make a way

A brilliant write Anne Lise. Always the innocent seem to have to pay the price of others neglect and cruelty. Does not seem to matter where in the world, be it man made like Bosnia or Ebola in West Arfica. There is an photo that always haunts me from Vietnam. That of a little girl running down a dirt road her face showing such such agony, she is naked because her clothes were burned from her body in a napalm attack. Where was God. She also was a little angel. Love Shane xxx
