Malala 17.10.12

Posted on May 9, 2013 By rayawambui No Comments on Malala 17.10.12

Dear Father,

May we be
May we be thankful.
For the soul that is Malala Yusaifzu.
For the courage of one who, selflessly is…
Thank you for a world in which, her story
is repeated, reported her attackers retorted
in voices echoed by religions of all sorts.
As a child, she
Is courage
Seldom found in adults, who would rather conform.

May we be
May we be cliff faces,
Ready,
To shout back a steady
Resounding of the royal whistle she blew
May we hold fast the remote, when she appears on news.

Knowing that the world would be a much better place.
If we spoke upright and frankly to represent our views.
