This poem has haunted me since you read it at my campus (IUPUI). African has many problems when it comes to children such as the AIDs inflicted men who brutally chop up and rape baby girls some not even one years old to rid their illness. I asked you the question of how to deal with such things as these and hopefully prayer and communicating these problems to those ignorance of it well help me with my future job with the UNHCR. Thank you for coming to our campus to speak and staying for the dinner! We all appreciated it and hopefully we are able to have you back soon!
WELL I AM FROM SOUTH AFRICA WHICH IS AT THE BOTTOM TIP OF AFRICA AND OVER HERE THERE IS A CERTAIN CULTURE THAT FORCES KIDS TO MARRY OLDER MEN BUT YOU HAVE GIVEN ME A MORE BROADER ASPECT IN THIS MATTER. SO THANK YOU FOR OPENING MY EYES AND AS YOUNG AS I AM, A 14 YEAR OLD KID, I'M GONNA TRY TO BE THE SOLUTION. THANKS 4 THE GREAT, TOUCHING AND THOUGHTFUL POEM...... MAY GOD BLESS YOU.
I love it. [[= The 4th stanza is a little akward but overall it's a very well written poem that get's the sadness of [one of] the things happening in the world across. I just wish more people knew about things like this and tried to help. ]=
