Who are the children was created as I worked with the kids and youth on their orginal production, Children Have Wings. Editor's Choice Award 1993.

 

 

 

Who Are The Children?

They are the ones from 

The Great Wall of China.

They are the ones from the 

coast of India,

and the shores of the Nile.

They are the ones from the  

Himalayas, Lebanon, and the Holy Cedars.

Whose footsteps follow in their religious leaders,

Mohamad, others and  Jesus.

Yes! Who Are The Children?

They are the ones who swiftly chases the deer,

and the ones who eloquently quote Shakespear.

Who Are The Children?

They're yellow, brown, black,white , red, copper, tan,

these are the children of our Great Land.

From the poets book Reflections of Love From Then To Now.

When I wrote ths book in 2000, I was concerned about children having access to the Internet and to chat rooms where "you can be anyone you want." Here we are many years later and the situation with children talking freely to stangers on the Internet
