Children´s Day-September22nd,2012 POEM: When I was A Child




         When I was a child, I thought they could do no wrong,
         When I was a child, everyone seemed to get along.
         When I was a child we were always together,
         When I was a child, I thought it would last forever.
         When I was a child, playing with my cousins was always fun,
         When I was a child, my face always brightened by the   
                                      beautiful sun.
         When I was a child, I was young and free,
         When I was a child, no pain or worries I could see.
         When I was a child, I learned from my mistakes,
         
         Now I am an adult, now my heart breaks.

                                (~ Nicola Burkett)






Data released in September 2012 show significant progress in reducing child mortality: globally, the number of under-five child deaths fell from nearly 12 million in 1990 to an estimated 6.9 million in 2011.
This shows that we an make a change but there´s still a lot to do to make this world a better place for the children. 
Please do not stop to support organisations  below that work hard to bring down the mortility of children. Here  are just a few, working on an international base:
