Isn't It Right? We Are Equal

Published by Family Friend Poems November 2014 with permission of the Author.

Isn't it right that every child should have a bed,
To have a roof over their head?
Isn't it right that every child
Should be shown affection,
Be safe, secure, and have protection?
Isn't it right?

We all have a right to an education,
Seek help, receive the right medication.
Everyone has the right to a good nutrition,
Not malnutrition.
We are equal!

We all have the right
To enjoy school,
Be treated kindly, not like a fool.
We should all speak our minds.
Our rights should not be declined.
We are equal.

We all have the right
To follow our dreams.
Isn't it right we shouldn't judge in looks,
Comparing ourselves to models in magazines and books?
Isn't it right?

Express yourself,
Don't be afraid to stand up.
Be you.
We are equal.

Suicide is a major problem
Among teens.
We don't let them blossom
Into individual human beings.

Be yourself,
Don't be scared.
We are not always here to be compared.
We are equal!

There is no one like us on the earth.
We are special.
Everyone is valued the same amount of worth.
We are all on the same level.
We are equal!
Isn't that right?
