I visited an orphanage in Underberg, South Africa and this poem I wrote the same day.
A child needs to know someone is caring,
That with them their love and time they’re sharing,
Teaching them, helping them freedom to find,
By feeding both their body and their mind.

Dark shadows the face of the future hides
When despair with happiness meets, collides,
Belief is the path, education’s the key,
That will lead to truth and equality.

A child needs support, a reason to live.
People need to be given chances to give,
To Nurture, give a child life skills to cope,
That is the vision that is ‘Clouds of Hope.’
