Amelia Dyer

Just a little something i did in class. A poem about my chosen biography subject: the baby farmer Amelia Elizabeth Dyer! 



A woman should love
A woman should care
A woman who doesnt? 
Who would dare! 

Amelia Dyer
Evil on her face 
Taking in babies 
Killing them with lace 

Times were hard
And mothers were desperate
And by her kind adverts
You wouldnt have guessed it 

A young servant woman 
Had birthed a daughter 
She wanted her adopted 
Not dumped in the water 

She thought shed be safer 
And away from harm 
But an evil woman 
Ran this baby farm
