Ah Literacy

AH  LITERACY

                                                                                                                        
 It is a Magical key It is an opening to more possibilities-
 the bridge between not and have!

 To know your name and express an idea,
 all through scribbling for sight-
 is noble and magnificent indeed!

 Genius in Creativity
 is nearly useless for himself and others-
 without that Magical Literacy!

 Why suffocate yourself or others,
 how many, Emancipators, Teachers and Philosophers
 have gone unheard from lack of Literacy ?

 Pray that when Brother or Sister
 are stumbling,
 unable to decipher-  
 that you Friend be there
 help them read the ways !
