In this dark and dreary world, the urchins forced to toil Their body bared and tarnished, gain little sleep and boil Tiny hands and feets famished, no love they had meet Like young lambs for slaughter, were they forced to cheat Sold away by father, with no heart but only greed How my mind cries, watching this heinous deed And sighs, its a discriminating fate unfair. © Nadiya (22 Jan '15) *Won 4th place on 4 Feb 2015 in the contest 'Interlocking Rhyme' by Isiah Zerbst
