A little girl was on her way to school,
She knew not, that ahead would be her own blood pool.
With courage, she overcame this ghastly situation.
She now pursues passionately the right to education.
*As a part of A-Z Challenge.
*Dedicated to Malala Yousafzai.
I love her! She inspires really... I cried seeing her address the united nations last year...courageous girl!
