The Seed of Hope

A child is like a seed of hope,

A promise of a future, with endless scope,

A delicate blossom, that needs to be nurtured,

And a precious gem, that must be treasured.

It's like a bird, that needs to fly,

And a flower, that needs to reach the sky,

It's a dream, that must be realized,

And a hope, that must be prioritized.

A child has the right to love and care,

To be protected, from harm and despair,

To be educated, and given a chance,

To grow and blossom, in a world of abundance.

It's like a river, that needs to flow,

And a tree, that needs to grow,

It's a ray of sunshine, in a world of dark,

And a flame of hope, in a world so stark.

A child has the right to freedom and play,

To be heard, and have their say,

To be sheltered, and kept safe and warm,

And to be given a chance, to transform.

It's like a diamond, that needs to shine,

And a star, that needs to align,

It's a gift, that we must cherish and protect,

And a responsibility, that we must not neglect.

For a child is the seed of hope,

The promise of a future, with endless scope,

A precious gem, that must be treasured,

And a delicate blossom, that needs to be nurtured.
