NO CHILD IS SAFE

 NO CHILD IS SAFE!!


By D.R.Ruhweza

8am it was
They knocked at my door
They actually banged at my gate
A Lady
Two Gentlemen
A saloon car

A fanciful story they told
"Daddy says ....
"Give us the children..."
"Plaiting their hair..."
Braids ... he instructed
"Quick...Quick...
We need to go...

Discernment was needed
Wisdom was required
Favour is what we call it
For in the nick of time
The househelps challenges
The traffickers


"What is his name?..."
"What car does he drive?..."
"What does he look like?..."
"He didnt tell us anything!"

Tempers flared
Cross words exchanged
The traffickers failed
To appeal to the househelp's minds

And thus
Our babies were saved!

No child is safe!!
