A young journalist with pen in hand,

Stands ready to till the land,

Determined to uncover the truth,

No matter how hard or uncouth.

 

With papers and recorder in set,

They're off to where the story will get,

Meeting people from all dimensions of life,

In their quest to reveal the strife.

 

Hours so long, reward so small,

Yet young journalist gives it their all,

Struggling for the right to be heard,

Their passion for journalism, undeterred.

 

Conduct research, write, they edit and fact-check,

Pouring their heart into every subject,

Till their work glows brightly like the stars,

And every step they take is marked with scars.

 

Through every obstacle and challenge faced,

Young journalist stands their ground with grace,

For they know the power of a well-told story,

And the impact it can have on society.

 

So let us honor this young journalist's fight,

Their unwavering pursuit of what is right,

They are the ones who give voice to the silenced,

And keep our world informed, fair; well-rounded.
