‘A magical Christmas’: To wish Merry Christmas to the children in war zones and Forgotten children in the Festive Season, The Bridge Magazine welcomes and shares once again another poem from its young contributor, Maître Orchidée Wafo, composed when she was 9 years old. It was a poem to wish Merry Christmas mostly to all children around the world!
From the children of Palestine surprised by the chaos of the carnage and the horrors of the conflict in Gaza, to the children of Darfur, of the Congo… confronted and blocked by the sad realities of the immediate consequences of the genocides which continue…
This December, peace and social justice should be the best Christmas gifts for children in war zones, and disadvantaged children surprised by the vicissitudes of life around the world.
Recent UNICEF statistics on global child poverty reveal that:
“About 1 billion children are multi-dimensionally poor, meaning they lack basic necessities like nutrition or potable water.”
The Bridge Magazine is once again promoting another poem by its young contributor, Maître Orchidée Wafo composed at the age of 9
Our young collaborator, currently qualified as a Corporate Lawyer, once again gives our editorial permission to publish one of her childhood poems. It was a poem to wish a Merry Christmas to all children around the world!
Poverty and the suffering of children endanger the sustainability of the human species.
The number of children currently trapped in poverty around the world is inconceivable!
Regardless of the geographical detail, the rights of children to a peaceful education and harmonious development seem irremediably compromised.
This magazine is best known to stick to its editorial guidelines. It has become a tradition of our publication to devote our December world exclusive editorial to highlighting the plight of children caught up in the world’s various vicissitudes.
Child poverty and suffering endangers the human species to future extinction.
This December is not about analysing each case individually.
We give once again a voice to a child, that of our young contributor via her poem (written when she was an infant) to send a message of peace and social justice, not only to children in war zones, but also to other disadvantaged infants and all the children worldwide.
A childhood wish is believed to come true as it is usually a sincere yearning that comes from deep within.
Observational drawing of a faceless Mary holding baby Jesus via the representative form of a stained glass window which are most often in places of religious worship especially in Catholicism.
Orchidée Wafo. Age 16 (The Bridge Magazine Young Contributor)
The peculiar element of Orchidée’s religious art work is that the faces always remain unfinished. When asked as to the reason why, she replied:
“It defies the principle of a supernatural entity’s identity to remain ambiguous to the human eye. It can only subsequently be fully revealed to a person after death.”
Maître Orchidée Wafo.
A childhood wish is able to move mountains, find the missing, overpower the existing, and thus improve the future.
Below is Orchid’s aforementioned poem.
A Magical Christmas
Christmas – a time of joy, happiness and love,
A magical time tinselled with stars above.
Christmas – so many colours: red, white, brown, green; A festival of light igniting my delight.
Christmas – a wonder, a treasure, a miracle Summoned by a baby in a manger long ago.
Christmas – most beautiful time of the year:
Bright lights fill winter streets spreading cheer.
Christmas – children playing in piling snow;
Girls hoping for kisses under the mistletoe.
Christmas – the wise men followed the star
Which led to a gathering round a warm fire.
Christmas carols sung by children’s choirs;
Robins chorusing from berried hedgerows.
All believers in the Christmas spirit raise
Your cups to fellowship and togetherness –Make sure you have yourself a MERRY CHRISTMAS.
A poem by Maître Orchidée Wafo
We hope Orchid’s Christmas wishes poem will rise and become triumphant by having a healing impact on children suffering worldwide.
Not to mention, a peaceful Christmas to children’s souls who have lost their lives before Christmas.
The Bridge Magazine wishes:
Merry Christmas to the tens of thousands of children stuck in abject poverty!
Merry Christmas to all children in war zones!
Merry Christmas to all the disadvantaged children around the globe!
Merry Christmas to every child around the world!
Merry Christmas to child victims of medical malpractice!
Merry Christmas to the children who are victims of police blunders!
Merry Christmas to children victims of sexual abuse and underage marriage!
Merry Christmas to children victims of parental neglect!
Merry Christmas to all underprivileged children around the world!
Merry Christmas to all children around the world!
