Anna Ashton

Joy on the faces Of children, As they run and play. Free from the pain Of hunger, Free to be Children again, As they wave goodbye to sorrow. In this, her fourth book of poetry, Anna Ashton explores with her distinctive personal touch the gap between the rich and the poor, between the lucky few growing up in developed nations and the sufferings of the third world, and leaves us with hope for the future.
