Alas, We Sing For Children



Alas, we sing for children
Who know not how to sing,
Who wait in homes like caged birds,
Their tongues forced down in chains.
They wait—oh how! For the door to open
And set their voices free.
They see their shadow on the wall
And they cry, silently, to catch wing upon their dreams
