Notes

Jesus said,” suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come onto me; for of such is the kingdom of heaven”, Matthew 19; 14 KJV

This poem is reference to struggling countries. Sudan Gaza and the West Bank Haiti Mali, comes to mind. Self entitled people complain if there’s something missing in the market while poor countries are in Dire Straits for the basic necessities like water and food.
