A BOY IS A BODY OF FIRE
A boy wears a body of fire
He was just six,
& as innocent as he was.
He saw hell on earth
& accused of a crime,
He was doused with petrol
Despite his plea for mercy,
She wasn't found.
A boy is a body of fire
He was just seven
& as innocent as he was
He was set ablaze,
& accused of stealing garri,
The crowd kicked and beat
Until the boy became
A body of fire.

Looks like a good nursery rhyme. You should however use punctuation marks more appropriately. For example, you used full stop many times where the statement was yet incomplete.
