Edward Ibeh 

The power of Innocence

Through the eyes of a child 
the world is innocent 
free of evil and ill doings 
there is no color separation 
everyone is taught to be friends 
eat together- play together 
everything is carefree 
there are no worries 
mother and father 
will always be there 
everything is at a child's fingertips 
innocence is a virtue 
until it is taken
