The Waterhole Poem by Lau Jane

The Waterhole



the tire swing and that water hole down back,
it was so refreshing until the day we heard a crack,
my friends were all playing and jumping and swinging,
one went too far and a car was within this.

Someone stole a car and hid it in the waterhole,
my friend broke his neck because of this trouble.
why would someone do that, a place for children,
my friend now cant walk because of the stupid people.

the water hole was closed off, now we cant play there,
our childhood was deprived, does anyone care?
my friends life is difficult all for no reason,
why would you do that, what should we believe in?

Is there someone watching out for people in this world?
no one ever caught the people that were involved,
This is such a crime, but who is to blame,
what do we tell my friend, the one that is in pain?
