Hope On A Bus

September 16, 2024 • Itchy Feet Productions • Season 1 • Episode 28

Hope On A Bus is written and performed by Ed Ismail.

Trigger warning, childless not by choice.

It's World Childless Week 16-22 Sep 2024, raising awareness of the childless not by choice community, which Ed has written this beautifully honest poem for their Our Stories section.

And we are delighted to also share Ed's words here at 12months 12stories.

Message from the author - This poem is to recognise World Childless Week. The raw feelings in this piece are inspired by many around the world who go unseen and unheard living childless, not by choice. I dedicate this to them.
