Hello Mona
Thanks for a wonderful read. And you are right..seeing children suffer does make me cry. I like writing prose type poems myself, but one thing for sure...the line breaks are difficult to choose.
Also, it is necessary to use punctuation to make the read smoother. So you would have to add some commas and full stops here and there, and choose your line breaks trying follow the natural rhythm of speech.
This poem reminds me of a film I saw some time ago.
Most inspiring.
