Today -
We are guilty, Of many errors and many faults,
But our worst crime Is abandoning the children,
Neglecting the fountain of life.
Many of the things we need can wait.
The child cannot.
Right now is the time
Bones are being formed, Blood is being made,
Senses are being developed.
To the child we cannot answer ‘Tomorrow’.
The child’s name is ‘Today’.
Gabriela Mistral, Chilean Nobel Laureate Poet
Orphan -
A child under the age of eighteen who, due to death, abandonment, abuse, neglect, AIDS, war, culture or poverty, lives without parental care.
