Sad when human life become intolerable,
inhumane,
nauseating,
heartbreaking,
kids deliberately taken from their parents,
left to fend for their sustenance,
begging and pleading,
countless in numbers to be individualized.
A boy's little fingers stretched out for compassion,

Aung San Suu Kyi
I cultivated roses in my garden;
