Kenyan Kid
Smiling all along,
Straining not anymore,
Supported in studies,
With free books and pens,
With free laptops and electricity,
Kenyan kid.
Living in the village,
Covering the mileage,
With patched uniform,
In the windowless classrooms,
And few 'commited' teachers,
In overcrowded classrooms,
Kenyan Kid.
On bare feet they play,
With empty stomach they dance,
And on numb fingers they write,
And the dusty knees they kick each other,
Kenyan Kid.
