The Hidden Girl

That story was so sad, 
and unbelievably wild--
how they managed to protect 
this innocent, small child

It inspired me to check out 
more library books
on other Holocaust children 
who survived in nooks

Like 14 Survival Stories -- 
"Hidden Like Anne Frank"
who each had some brave people 
in Amsterdam to thank

Except, UN-like poor Anne Frank, 
these other ones survived
in the right place, at the right time,
resistors "connived" :)
