Poem re Immigration:


In lands afar, where dreams take flight,
A yearning for freedom, shining bright,
They tread upon unknown terrain,
Seeking solace, a life unrestrained.

Yet, their journey wrought with woes,
The plight of illegal immigration grows.
Across the borders, they slip unseen,
Fleeing poverty's grip, a desperate scene.

In shadows cast, they silently roam,
Striving for hope, to find a home.
But tangled in the web of uncertainty,
They face the trials of illegality.

For the land they seek is a double-edged sword,Where dreams can thrive, yet hearts are gored.The challenges they face, they can't evade,The problems born from choices made.

A nation's strength lies in its laws,
But how can justice reconcile its flaws?
Families torn, in the pursuit of dreams,
Held captive by borders, or so it seems.

The heart aches for compassion's embrace,To mend the wounds, find a common space.But the weight of illegal immigration's toll,Tests the unity of a nation's soul.

Economic strains and societal fears,
Fueled by misconceptions, creating tears.The burden heavy on a nation's back,As both sides grapple with what they lack.

A complex issue, the struggle profound,
Illegal immigration, a battleground.
For solutions lie beyond mere walls,
In comprehensive reform, the heart recalls.

A balanced approach, a path to find,
Where justice meets with a compassionate mind. Addressing root causes, lifting the veils,Seeking humanity when policy prevails.

Let's strive for empathy, not division's might,To understand the struggles, the human plight.For within the tapestry of migration's tale,We find our shared humanity, without fail.
