They're Just Children Poem by Ragy Sandid

They're Just Children



Eyes slightly dimmed
A world's wonder
Pure energy, untrimmed
A sneeze, eyes tease
They're just children

Eyes wide open
Today's a day to touch
Today's hoping
So little would do so much
A yawn, so much time gone
They're just children

On two feet
Ready to whirl the world
Ready to meet
The expanse of life unfurled
A stretch, soldier in the trench
They're just children

Intelligent, outspoken
The smartest one alive
Takes and gives every token
For others to survive
Stand tall, never fall
They're just children

New ready with life's gear
The world is ready to receive
Those who fear nothing but fear
And make those who doubt, believe
Arched back, needless attack
They're just children

Turn on friendly fire
That's not where your supervillain lives
Calls every dear, dire
Then turns to take back what he gives
Sucked in, made of tin
They're just children

It's time to grow
And take with that part of the soil
They can feel and know
An oil's fury during the boil
Crutched, they grow clutched
They're just children
