Srinivas Veepuri Poet Rhyme

Like Gems They Spread Their Glow - Chanso

Take a Chance on a Chanso Contest 
Sponsored by: Kim Rodrigues 
placed 1st
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------



With minds as clean as slates,
In queues, kids go to schools
To ascertain their fates.

With their colourful ties,
Clad in distinct dresses,
They look like butterflies.

Not knowing their races,
They make friends with others,
With smiles on their faces.

So soft are they as clay,			
Take whatever the shape
You give to them today.

So subtle are their hearts,
Break them not with harsh words,
Let them play their own parts.

Give them freedom to grow;
Like gems they spread their glow.
