Tales untold written on innocent canvases
Naive faces hiding the anguish of unanswered questions
Unrequited affection of nameless mothers and absent fathers
Of blank chapters missing clauses and skipped phrases
Safe Haven from the scorching heat shelter from the bitter cold
Smothered with love the fledging plants spring into being
Encircled with grace the light of hope rises in their souls
Road map through the maze birthplace of visions
Home of dreams nursery of giants armies of compassion
Here they come young tubers broken in their prime
Tasting the un ripened fruit soured grapes a sordid affair
Marked as damaged goods discarded by lovers and parents
Ready for the bins of life snatched they are in the nick of time
Angels of mercy deliver from the jaws of death
Loosing their ways after the sand storm in the Sahara
Finding a new path in uncharted waters
Life jacket to drowning men light house in the storm
