CHILD MARRIAGE

Little feet tender and coy The streams mirror her luminescent joy Golden locks cascading down her arms White dahlias cupped in her palms She roams endlessly the mountain of rocks Frolicking about in her bright frocks She stands clad in a white veil Her tears a muffled wail White ribbons harass her wrists Church bells resonate through the trysts White visatrias' frangrance wisp away As sweet as her innocence is stripped astray Pray tell, the wretched life of a dame We preach in God's name
