If you have not seen the film '' Buddha Collapsed In shame '' , please do. It was made in Afghanistan. The best films do not get the '' Oscars '' . This film , makes those that do , seem rather tame.Of little consequence , of no importance .


BAKHTAY

Bakhtay , just wonted to goo to school ,

Bakhtay wonted learn new jokes ,

Bakhtay wonted to Learn to read ,

Bakhtay wonted to read storeys ,

Bakhtay , did not like war games ,

Bakhtay , managed to bye a note book ,

Bakhtay could not bye a pencil , nor sharpener , nor a rubber ,

Eraser

Bakhtay, took her mothers lipstick to use at the school,

Bakhtay did not even know wear the school was ,

Bakhtay , set out to find the school ,

Bakhtay found a school '' this is a BOYS school '' ,

Bakhtay was told '' go a cross the river , girls school their ,

Bakhtay trudged over the river found the girls school ,

Bakhtay not welcomed there ,

Bakhtay ignored , over looked , never noticed ,

Bakhtay was just six years of age ,

Bakhtay did not like war game's ,

Bakhtay , loved to smile ,

Bakhtay , just needed , wonted to laugh ,

Bakhtay , did not like war games ,

Bakhtay , sadly no one that bothered ,

Bakhtay, their are those who care .

I totally agree, the best films do not get the 'oscars' . This movie was one of the most touching movies I have ever seen. A lot of student are not aware of the valuable times they spend in school. A lot of people don't know the comfort they have. It is hard to find someone who really treasure books. Both the movie and your poem made me realize this.
thanks for sharing, it is wonderful

hugs :)
