Details | Sonnet | Neglected Ties You shirk the weight of parenthood's call, leaving your children to wither, unfed. Are you a father, or mere specter of one? A mother, or just a shadow that's gone? While others nurture, educate, and guide, you abandon your own to fate's tide. Your concern lies with outsiders, it seems, while your kin suffer, and your legacy beams. The children you forsook, the partner you left, will rise to greatness, despite the neglect. Will you claim pride in their future fame? Seek praise for years of absence, and hollow claims? Awaken to your duties, and seize the day, for the future beckons, and will not stray.

As our children walk down the aisle to graduate Parents silently say check mate.

Details | Other | You And Them June 26, 2025 Only if I can reach all children in this world through my simple works and writings... So many children speak different languages and I don't know all of them. Children living in both urban and rural areas may have access to television sets and internet. However, there are more children who stay in areas very far from schools, hospitals and churches. And these children may have not even seen cellphones, modern gadgets or innovations of different sorts. I wonder how they educate themselves? This message is not an appeal to all adults (and/or parents) of the modern age. I can only do small things, but YOU can do better after reading my simple reminder! Thank you for your warm thoughts and precious time. Cliff

Details | Didactic | THE IMPORTANCE OF EDUCATING GIRL CHILD The importance of educating a girl child When you educate a girl child You already educated many generations Enabling them to live right in the society Building their capacity To take responsibility To be independent, not a liability. The importance of educating a girl child The Bible already made it clear Train up a child In the way they should go When they're old They won't depart from it Saying; woman be submissive to your husband.

Details | Rhyme | The Usual Suspects Every day at quarter to four There is often a rush to the library door The ‘usual suspects’ are often there Sitting on a library chair They speak to the teacher who they have upset It may have been deliberate or even for a bet They could have been fighting, swearing or smoking When they arrive for their chat no one is joking Disturbing others, using their phone or often being late They will end up in the library - it’s not just down to fate Some may learn and try to refrain But the ‘usual suspects’ do it again and again After a short time their chat is over, and to the bus they run But I love to see the days when the library list shows ‘none’ Our staff they do a marvellous job to try and educate our youth Poor behaviour can stop this task, it is the sorry truth.

Details | Rhyme | -Heaven Called Born into a family of fourteen Never having heard the words “I love you” She left home a girl with little education An army life she did pursue She fell in love and married a soldier Soon a mum of five Tragedy struck early At thirty seven her husband died Widowed with five small children In a time of limited support She emigrated to Australia On the ten pound pass she bought She worked her life as a cleaner Worked her fingers to the bone To do what she had to for her children Keep safe, educate and home She was only a little lady Four foot ten and no more Her heart though was as big as the ocean My role model, mother and mentor She taught her children well About life’s rights and wrongs To show respect and be kind Be determined and strong In latter years we were best buddies An unbreakable, eternal bond Until heaven called for…. My beautiful,sweet ,little mum

Details | I do not know? | Life Life has so many ups and downs a world where drugs are taken over our kids where war is destroying our country where violence and crime is taking over our communities. A world where children aren't safe to play and if you are a celebrity with murder you can get away. A world where people are dying day by day, and you can only ask the Lord to show us the way. A world where father figures are few, and our children are left not knowing what to do. A world where teachers can't descpline, and don't get paid enough to teach, where preachers need to get out of the church and hit the streets. They need to educate our people and show them the way teach them when they go to a job interview, the proper way to dress and what to say. We need to stop judging and start keeping each other out, because isn't that what God perfect plan all about. I take a look at life every day and judge not, I just wish in my world the bad guys weren't the cops.

Details | Blank verse | Naked Bellies Children are children, They want to play only, They like toys and rides, They cry when they need food. Although they are yours And although they are mine, Children are children, They will learn from a family or a society. I am poor can’t afford, Look at their naked bellies, Always searching food, And fresh water to kill thirst. I can educate them, Their poverty is only their luck, But how can I shut their eyes? So they can’t blame me. When they shall be grown up, When they shall look at the shinning lights, They shall feel their darkness, They shall be helpless to define poverty. If I shall be alive, I shall educate them, Your hard toil only can change you, Work hard and stay in peace. But I afraid, if a third person, He educated them they shall be a thief, Or a robber, smuggler and deceiver, I never thought they will be criminal. Children are children, It depends upon you and me, If we didn’t cooperate them, A third person will get a benefit.

Details | ABC | Definition of Rights Youth with their rights But no responsibilities Youth with their rights But no minds or thoughts How am I supposed to look up to you? How am I supposed to know right from wrong? With no person showing appreciation With no youth being thankful How am I supposed to act responsibly?

We are the voice of the children, here to educate and lament about all the pain, joy, and anxiety and fear we carry as children all over the world. 1.We are shut out by time and speed, indeed time really moves but today we stand as the voice of all children, lamenting and remembering our brothers and sisters in all parts of the world, speaking freedom, encouraging respect, crying against child oppression and calling and wailing for redemption of the world’s future leaders.

All children whose parents left them, all children who don’t have a place to call home but they move around in the streets begging for food and they sleep in the holes tanks and anywhere even when the night is cold and dark they stand alone, without education and without proper medication. (All). Our hearts are bleeding today, sorrow and horror that is why we cry and wail as loud as we can calling for help.

Details | Free verse | Learn Thy Trade From minute settlements, to towns of trade Yet without warning, a sudden raid A venture into foreign lands The walls and gates of Viking hands To labour on, as understood Homes we build, prepare thy wood Address the strength of near rooftops For there beneath lay our workshops Commence the plan, we have devised Perfect thy craft and specialize Protect the home, o’ dearest wives We venture out, to honour lives I make thy comb, you make thy shoe With silver weighed, we shall accrue Of buried towns, forgotten fence The archaeological evidence Of generations when time began Young boy o’ ten, become a man We send you on, to grasp thy trade The substance of which life is made Trade thy pot and wooden chest Wives will loom and keep the nest Our homes rest on thy trodden earth Stones surround thy warming hearth I write, I read, a leader’s state O carved letters educate We shall not settle for any less Protection called, our high goddess Written by Geraldine Taylor ©

Details | Rhyme | His Dream Dedicated to Pastor Jimmy Bachelor, may his faith comfort, protect, and guide them His dream is to find a place, of comfort, for the child Off the streets where they roam, innocence being robbed and defiled His dream is to take a stand To save a generation, yet to be So biased people have become, what's underneath, they do not see His dream is to strip away, the shield, that they wear To find potential locked inside, to reach the stars, if they dare His dream is to lead by example, challenging, each one to be bold Educate and teach responsibility, to watch, the person inside unfold His dream it to heal the hurt, inflicted on our innocent babies Just a chance to rise above, the you can't do and maybe's His dream should be reality, to a world that shuts them out A cold and drab existence awaits that fills them each with doubt His dream can become yours, if we could just unite as one If not, someday we'll pay the price in a country that, they run His dream is for, them to dream so that, they will always know, that, they can depend on adults and with that, they will grow

Details | Lyric | What have we done to Generation Z? What have we done to Generation Z? Left them huge debts, who could break free? Inflated the currency, raised every price If you like your kids, how was that nice? Playgrounds turned into pixelated parks, Teens regret childhood chats with faceless sharks. Images seen, can't be unseen, Can purity's acorn yet grow clean? So many teachers indoctrinate But they forget their job was to educate Kids live a world with no firebreak No context, bound to repeat every mistake And who made pot legal, pushed in the fast lane Even though we know it harms the teen brain Who convinced so many kids they are "gay" Almost 30 percent? Who led them this way? [chorus] Generation Z, caught in our storm, Left adrift, where norms transform. Society now, unforeseen, predicted, They'll inherit the mess that neglect inflicted. The future we've made for these kids is bleak And it doesn't help that we've made them sad and weak The world getting dangerous, already fires ignite The greatest generation is too old to set things right. [outro] What have we done to generation Z? Have me made them brave, have we made them free? The child is father to the man, it is said I look to the future; I feel only dread.

Details | Other | ARFID Hi! My name is Joseph-Jason But you can call me Dude And I am here to explain to you How I feel about drink and food. I have this thing called ARFID But it doesn’t make me weird I just find most food scary It’s something to be feared. My Mummum calls me Scrawny Butt Because I am so thin But it’s not like anorexia I can’t control it, I don’t win. Some people just don’t understand “If he’s hungry, he will eat” “Don’t give in to pickyness” “If you don’t eat, no treat” But I would rather starve myself Than risk a taste or lick I won’t eat food I don’t deem safe This is real; it’s not a trick. Don’t slip things in my safe food Because I’ll know, then that’s gone too And then do you know what happens? I’ll never trust food from you! My safe foods are brand specific ‘New and improved’ is my worst nightmare If the packaging or product changes I can’t eat it and that’s not fair. So when you see us eating My family has a proper meal Please don’t make rude comments Don’t make it a big deal. Maybe try just asking Why I have chocolate, yoghurts, crisps Crackers and a fruit pouch Or mind your own business! We want to let the world know, To educate and teach So take the time to learn from me And more people we can reach.

Details | Rhyme | If Only My Wish Would Come True Images of children dwelling in developing world In plight of poverty~~ some two billion strong, Fly a flag of existence, waving distress unfurled, Crooning mournful song: is this where we belong? Struggling in parched lands of bared dreary sights World they live in is the world they have known, Where days of emptiness cede to dreary nights Churning nightmares as dreams vacant bemoan. Wishing upon an angel~ I would endeavor to plead For turning places despaired into domains of hope, For means to educate, learn skills, write and read, For rewriting will of destiny, while striving to cope. If I could bend sorrow and the fate of tomorrow Seeds of knowledge I’ll sow in the dreaded woe Marveling the fields of wisdom sprout and grow As minds edified glow, defying misery’s shadow. My wish for peace echoes benevolence spurred As hymns of unity in the temple of goodwill toll And calls of equity from endearing hearts heard Reverberate harmony in euphony of sublime soul. I wish upon a candle, for world to join a sing-along Lauding pledges of love to spur the youth on and on Cheering to acclaim: this is where the kids belong~ In benevolence of hearts, over seven billion strong.

Details | Quatrain | If You Could Change the World Did you know a report of child abuse is made every ten seconds? There’s emotional, physical and sexual defilement in certain cases, these innocent sweet children deserve a home with love and nurture, there’s so many instances of children lost with unknown faces. Revilement can cause mental health disorders in adulthood, two thirds of people treated for addiction reported abuse as a child, seventy percent of abused children are the age of seven and under, and I’m sure millions of cases are unknown and never been filed. If I could change the world I’d help raise awareness about this issue, I’d fight to pass legislature to allow adult victims have free treatment, for any critical health issues caused by the exploitation of their youth, I would encourage volunteering to raise money to all be in agreement. There needs to be better edification for the new foster parents, instruction and proper methods to educate the agencies, if only there was more awareness spread to families with children, never leave your child unattended with people known strangely. I beg and plead to all the people who have children of their own, be cautious with who you leave them while unaccompanied, and to all the sick people who have been accused of this act, I swear one day there will be a better way to protect their needs.
