Pearl Allen Poem
Christmas joy it brings to some and sorrow falls on others
Families gather together, while loneness over comes another
Smiles on the children’s faces, and frowns on the empty places
New Year’s promise a new life for some, yet it ends a life for one
Christmas brings the star yet it also leaves a scar
One greets his new guest, while another gets depressed
We sleep in the dark, he sleeps in the park
Christmas brings joy and sorrow, I hope for a better tomorrow

Pearl Allen Poem
She pleaded her case
She was a child dressed up in white lace.
She was told that people she know their place.
She knew then that the world leaders were just a disgrace.
She saw how they put people in different categories according to race.
Tears of sorrow fell down her face as she thought what a waste.
She began to speak without any haste.
She started to cry as she pleaded her case.
She started to talk in a slower pace.
She jumped to her feet as she looked in their face.
She pulled her hair back and she said this with grace.
We are one race, so where is your place
