Holocaust Poetry Response

We heard, we saw
we have cried.
We have felt the aching of the anguishing
destruction of the children.
We too are nothing but Children.
We have a future though, unlike those who have suffered. We can be lawyers, teachers and parents, and for that we must try. We have the sky as the limit for us, the sadness propels. Wasting the time that has been stolen from you has ended. From the ashes of those who have cried, starved and died, we hear your plea. The time for us has come and its time to fulfill our dreams so you do not die in vain. We will never let this happen again. Your dreams drive us to success and we recognize you as heroes who have perished and for that we commend you. We will remember you not as just the 'children' but as idols for our dreams to be achieved.
