“IN THE SHADOWS OF NEED, A CHILD’S JOURNEY UNFURLS,

WITH HUNGER’S GNAW, LIFE’S CANVAS IN WHIRLS.

TINY HANDS, ONCE FILLED WITH PLAY AND MIRTH,

NOW, HE FACES ADVERSITY , STRUGGLING FOR WORTH.

NO SILVER SPOONS, NOR LUXURIES TO CLAIM,

PIKIN WEY NO GET PAPA AND MAMA,

FAR AWAY FROM HOME ON A DISTANCE MILE,

YET IN THEIR SPIRIT BURNS A RESILIENT FLAME.

THOUGH LIFE’S PATH MAY SEEM DAUNTING AND WILD,

THEIR COURAGE SHINES, A BEACON OF A RESILIENT CHILD.

IN DUST-LADEN STREETS,THEY ROAM,

DREAMS ENTWINED WITH HARDSHIP ’S BITTER LOAMS.

AMIDST SCARCITY ’S GRASP, WHERE HUNGER ABIDES,

HOPE FLICKERS, YET AMBITION QUIETLY RESIDES.

EDUCATION’S DENIED, THE PATH SEEMS UNCLEAR,

YET RESILIENCE BLOSSOMS THROUGH TRIALS SEVERE.

WITH STRENGTH UNBOWED, IN ADVERSITY ’S WILD,

A YOUNG HEART’S SPIRIT REMAINS UNDEFILED .

TO THE BLACK CHILD ON THE RIVER OF NILE.”
