    In this one it is if your first and second line nearly repeat themselves.
    In such a short piece of poetry to repeat yourself is not something you want to do.
    Perhaps you could change this to be more powerful by doing something like:


    Millions
    of children die,
    so few care;

    a world
    is lost.

    Thank you for entering!
    Best of luck to you!


    Blessings
    Bel

    Lost tribes

    Do you know how many villages and tribles I think of when I read this. Not to mention the homeless children Living in the sewers of Romania. If you can call that Living. All the families living in the garbage dumps of Mexico. The abused children of the inner-city. The homeless children of Mongolia. The aids children of the Congo. The tribal children of India. The list just doesn't end does it. I wish I could list each name of every child that starved to death today. If I knew their names, Their lives should be remembered and Honored in some way.
    The deaths of the rest must be prevented!

    yeha no kidding
    al this is and whaqt is to become is the mass suicide of the way we raise and the way we fall
    what is now is what was not then
    we chose to falsely lead
    for that we are diseased
