Marcus here. Decided to post this poem of the last day at orphanage. ^^
Each block finds a place in art
Plastic bricks built from their heart
Pencils scratch on papered floors
Draw open life's infinite doors
Folded sheets of nature's wood
Rivet the ceilings with pristine good
Melodic rhymes and nurseric beats
Fill the rooms with alacritous feets
Whispered words with he who reads
Brings to light their daily needs
Plans were buried in sunburnt clay
Innocent musings had swept the day
Everyone's tied by an invisble cord.
Though each orphan's on his own accord.

Heyhey guys! Liren here, and here's a poem about the trip. It's not very good so =X
I remember the
Crunch
Of unsweet mangos
Sitting in a bus
Waiting
For bicycles to be assembled
And I remember
Feeling welcome
In a place I had no relation to
And now that I’m back
In a home, in a life
I find myself
Rushing backwards
For all that I felt
Trying, to keep it real
Memories
Of eden overgrown
Between mansions
Of climbing bars
Attached to the sides
Of houses
Of piping
In soil
In roads
Of sunsets
Marred by rust
Reminders
To look underneath
Our expectations
To what was actually
There
And to keep, and treasure
Till I could pass it on, and even after
I remember the taste
Of crunchy,
Unsweet, mangoes
My hope
Is that
One day,
You will too.
