Street Kids

Updated on August 25, 2012

Blessed is he who considers the poor; The Lord will deliver him in time of trouble. The Lord will preserve him and keep him alive, And he will be blessed on the earth...

It is estimated that ten million children go to bed everyday without food world wide but what is the estimate of children that sleep in the street every night world wide?

I mean the homeless kids.The street kids...

Kids who don't have a place called home

Kids that pass their day and night in the street

These are the kids i mean.

When i talk of street kids, i do not mean kids that peddle in the street,what i actually mean is those kids that are deprived of love, those innocent kids that are subjected to abuse,murder,rape and all forms of evil the society and Government culminate.

Kids that have no care and no one to care for them.

These kids are not Africans, they are Europeans,Asians,Australians,Americans,Caribbeans,and they are not blacks, they are whites too.

These are the kids i am talking of,kids of the street.

Kids that are abandoned by the people yet we talk of the people and for the people.

What is the government all over the world doing about these kids?

These innocent citizens get little or no attention from the government though many government of the World ratified the UN Convention on the right of the child yet there are so many street kids all over the world.Should i talk of India,the Philippine,Brazil,Nigeria,Germany, South Africa,Ukraine,USA,UK, Angola etc...

They blame the parents...

Yes! the blame goes to parents especially single parents and those who are not family oriented thus braining in more than they can afford.

But i believe that you will not argue that;

70% of world street kids don't even know their parents,some have never met neither of their parents,some are abandoned at birth.

It is embarrassing to see so many sky scrappers, tall mansions, modernized prisons all over the world yet less homes for these kids.

Street kids...

Where is the love

I say where is the love

See the president and the minister


They are looting the Earth

They don't care about the Kids

They don't care about our streets

They bring up fake initiatives

They throw in millions of cash

They call it Youth empowerment


But their families-Beneficiaries

Nothing gets to our kids


They are subjected to untimely deaths

Exposed to daily abuse and tribulations

There is no truth with the Politicians

They are just like secondhand car dealers


Liars! Lairs! Liars!

They keep promising and failing

This is not An African Problem

We have white and black kids in danger


They don't care about these kids

They promise education and safety

And i wonder if these kids are citizens

You see them talking of residential homes


They talk of rights and tax rights

They talk of health care and tax care

I am fed up with my President

He keep looting the treasury

The wife is the bursary


While the children are the victims


They don't care about us

I walk through the shadows of death

Upon the Cobras i walk under foot

My cup overflow


SAVE OUR CHILDREN! SAVE OUR CHILDREN! SAVE OUR CHILDREN!!!
