This place doesn’t feel deserving,
whilst people’s tempers turning,
all this is occurring,
while the streets are burning.
Turn around, cry for help,
when all you see is yourself,
all of this is occurring,
while the streets are burning.
This place you may fear,
is the place that is right here,
all of this occurring,
while the streets are burning.
Try to put out the fire,
Is this really your desire?
Are you really deserving,
while the streets are burning?

Written by my talented 14yr old son – proud Mummy moment 😀
Heroic! An ace poem.
Thank you – he is delighted!
A valiant moment. You’re there!
Kiran says Thank you! 🙂
Like Mother, like Son! 🙂
I say thank you – Kiran now needs therapy 🙂
Nah, no therapy. Just tell him to write it out 😀
Well there will be some angsty poetry if he thinks he is going to turn into me – that is one high standard of eccentric that he has to achieve 😀
🙂
Outstanding. Love this
My son says thank you very much indeed 🙂
Deep, intense that touches the heart. Beautiful post. Felt like what we all feel sometimes. We burn inside, cry for help but somehow not everytime someone is there to hear or help us.
Thank you very much indeed! My Son will be delighted and inspired by this comment 🙂
Very talented – gets it from his mother!
Thank you (from both of us!)
He left a daft comment on one of my poems, (Sunrise – I think) the next thing he is stood by my side with poem in hand!
He wasn’t sure about me putting it on here. I’m sure he will be delighted when he sees the response!
😀
We all need a little encouragement.
wow!i never saw it coming! great job!kudos to your child dear 🙂 and to the proud mommy 🙂
Aw thank you – he is now inspired and has his own notebook. I catch him scribbling away!! 🙂 xxx
yey!!that’s very exciting for a parent, to see your child love what you also loved! good for you! maybe a WP account for him eh ? 🙂
Fingers crossed!!
Recently found out that one of my cousins had some poetry published – must be a family thing!! 🙂
in a book?newspaper??that’s my dream really!!!its in the blood i guess!
It was in a magazine I think!! I know it would be fantastic to have a poem published!! 🙂
of course!it is my utmost dream really!I will frame it on the six corners of my house if I will be able to publish my piece!
Oh yes!! Then you must invite everyone around to admire your handy work!! 😀
