The Angel

Prostitution at midnight, moon shining bright please...solution
Solution to this torture of these children captured into prostitution
Brothels run for brothel keeper's monetary gain... he's no angel
Angel is this little girl who is forced to work in his brothel
Torture is what this child experiences, her youth the allure
Allure of monetary gain causes the brothel keeper to use youth as allure

Ten.. sometimes eight year old, girls kept in pens
Pens.. locked- in.. totally enclosed no light girls age ten
God's wonderful children tortured,heat, dirt..no play
Play for little girls should be everyday for they are God's
Angels are what these children are, we need to be cudgels
Cudgels we should be to defend these children..God's Angels





This is Mirror Sestet poetry...I found this when looking up info on the Mirrored 
Refrain......This is one of those that one needs a thinking cap..

Amazing subject which is a burning problem of the modern world is very nicely tackled. You have written it in beautiful words on this painful but much needed subject. You have done a great job by bringing such vital issues to limelight may be someone finds a solution to this spreading problem if not today perhaps tomorrow. Thanks for your precious comments on my new Poem Vasava – An untold Story. Best wishes and love Ravindra...........Sara Ken

Emotive and effective. So tragic this goes on in our day - how the perpetrators get away with it I fail to comprehend! Its good to find someone willing to be voice for such souls and a credit it is to your writing in such form too for it helps emphasize the message you deliver... Well done! Thanks for dropping by to comment my write, and yes it is of my experience on this occasion... Hugs, Anna-Marie.
