there are so many stories to be told 

some are sad and some are bold 

others fill us up with pride 

while others make us cry 

 

Rabbit Proof Fence combines them all 

even though the characters are small 

it paints a picture that must be shared 

a story about survival no matter what fared 

 

three little girls in a big wide world 

persevering through whatever fate hurled 

this tale runs deep inside my veins 

my heart plummets when I see their pains 

 

alone those three, fighting on their own 

without a mother to feed them, all skin and bone 

standing up agaisnt the wrong 

who knew it would take so long? 

 

 

 

as their long walk to freedom comes to an end 

it feels as if this story was my friend’s  

as my soul connects, a bond is formed 

a mother and her children reunite, my heart is warmed 

 

a story like this is meant to be told 

it’s message worth more than gold 

beautiful is the only word to describe  

a story so meaningful it makes me rhyme
