Her eyes are hollow......her look is void.....the expression on her little face is a mask of unbelief, will this be her life? without a day of rest, without a caress hand? In the middle of nowhere she is a girl, a coquetish little creature that braided her hair, maybe an older sister did it at dawn, before going to work.
Her pretty face hidden under dirt, the shovel bigger than her, she is looking at us, she is looking at you, can you answer her questions? Those lips tremble before producing any sound. To whom will she speak her troubles?
She has no hope, she is too tired for thinking, she is a 6 year old girl of the 21st century.

Many children around the world really do have a terrible life. I posted recently on one aspect of this - the problem of children being tortured and killed because they are being accused of witchcraft in Nigeria. A terrible business.
So called Witch children abused in Nigeria
