Who Can Lead The Children <br />And hold them by the hand. <br />Who can speak for them <br />To help them understand. <br /> <br />Some are neglected <br />Some just overlooked. <br />Some abused by given choice <br />Some are just misunderstood. <br /> <br />Who can truly love and teach them <br />That care can mend the land. <br />They also have a voice you know <br />Our future is in their hands. <br /> <br />Who Can Lead The Children <br />And hold them by the hand. <br />Who can speak for them <br />To help them understand. <br /> <br />Can't you hear their cries <br />Some from the blood of the ground. <br />They can't determine what's right <br />When grown folks can't be found. <br /> <br />Do you hear their cries <br />Their eyes of knowledge and concern. <br />They need our patience and guidance <br />From lessons we should have learned. <br /> <br />Who Can Lead The Children <br />And hold them by the hand. <br />Who can speak for them <br />To help them understand.<br /><br />Cecelia Weir<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/who-can-lead-the-children/
