I am little

Emese Faltinschi 1987 (Zalau)



I am little,
still within
there´s a rise
of Force in me;

I am little,
and you know,
world has made me
grow too old.

I am little,
but my force,
is the weakness
of others.

I am little,
though inside,
there’s a Giant
by my side.

I am little,
and you know,
yet you keep
a closen door...

I am little,
the game is scorce,
now you tell me,
who gave me force?!

I am little
and you know,
yet you watch me
like a show.

I am little,
but Human,
as I carry
my Faith on.

About this poem

I was watching a photo, with a little poor child, carrying huge plastic bags around his waste and shoulders, bare foot; one image-in a million words...or a poem.

Always inclined to poetry, as my mother gave me the taste of verses by reciting her favorite poets often. I love animals and plants, above all, innocence of all children. more…
