Poem Found While Listening
to a Little Baghdad Girl

Feb 16 2003,
on CBC's Sun Day

by Catherine Graham

When I hear on the news
that the thieves are coming
I close my ears.

When they are bombing us
earth is going to fly up
and cover our eyes.

I want to be a doctor 
so I can heal people.

Bye bye. Ciao.

Come.  Come back.

 God willing -
