POEM ABOUT ACHIEVING UNIVERSAL PRIMARY EDUCATION

By: John Raymund D. Tamargo

Universal primary education is a rich reward

For children who have toiled and strived
Where school houses are filled with knowledge and zest
And their futures are kept alive

Their doors are open to those seeking more

A chance to learn and to compare
A way to break old patterns of thought
And develop skills they can share

A widening of horizons, far and near

And growth in all that they can be
Renders young men and women empowered
With a future for all to see

No longer do beggars pass, begging for scraps

And young girls sold for slave labour
Education will show them a much brighter road
And give them the strength to falter

A chance to explore new things, new ideas

Set a young course for the future
So strive for a world full of educated minds
Universal Primary Education the ultimate suture!
POEM ABOUT ERADICATING EXTREME POVERTY AND HUNGER
By: Hanz Daniel P. David

Defeating poverty is a mission you must start

To ensure every person a bellyful of art
We must share what we have no matter how small
An empty stomach we won't ever let fall

Poverty is found in so many a place

It's a sad truth that puts a smile on the face
Righteous people who strive to make the earth fair
Will help bring people out of the despair

Give them hope and provide a meal or two

So that the poor will know what to do
With half of the world living below the line
We must all join forces to eradicate this grime

No child should be hungry or without a home

As one, we can make sure, no child would ever roam
It's a daunting challenge but we can make that chance
That all will have food, water and a handsome glance

For years so long have been the plight

It's time to put an end to it
By working united, this mission we can ignite
To eradicate Extreme Poverty and Hunger.
POEM ABOUT REDUCING CHILD MORTALITY
By: David Keith P. Oraño

Child mortality rates are a tragic sight

Reducing their pain is meant to be right
So take action now and make it our plight
To ensure their lives are so bright

Lend a helping hand, show some energy

Focus on young souls, let them be free
To delvelope fully, to live and to be
Towards reducing child mortality

As a family, as individuals too

Focusing on health, creating hope anew
For vulnerable children who are the youth
That's the answer if we're talkin' truth

Investments in care makes sense to me

It's the only way to let them be
The future of our world must be set free
By reducing child mortality

If everyone joins together, it can be done

A world where each child can reach 21
Let us work hard to reduce this sad story
Of children gone soon before their glory
