Jhade Sagrave
A fragrant rose and an impressive speech
An eloquent inspired verse and song
These kids have seen so very few of each
And so deprived they gently limp along
Yet irregardless, slowly they advance
Attaining wisdom others would discard
They pray the world would just give them a chance
But rising above poverty is hard
A class of thirty now holds only twelve
As one by one the children fade away
They sadly take the chains their parents held
Another generation fallen prey
Economy demands a working class
But not at my expense, man; I just passed
