Scarred children.

The saying that "sticks and stones will break my bones, but names will never hurt me" remains as false today as it ever was. Sometimes, in fact usually, emotional scars last forever.

Sadly, there are too many children are scarred and robbed of their childhood. Of course, even one would be too many.
Powerful message Roy.

Hi Roy,
This poem so beautifully written, resonated deeply with me. I often think of this very thing that is happening across America and indeed repeated across the world. There are so many examples to witness of losing our children scarred by social media, unqualified teachers in classrooms. So many are bullied constantly and all forms of belittling and taunting abound. Your message to hold our posterity as a treasure as they should be regarded, benefits everyone! Excellent verse!
All the best,
Senyai

Abused children, are not just those who are physically harmed, but those who grow up too 'entitled'. This also leads to great imbalance in how they perceive the world. You are correct In saying that only God can bring everlasting healing to this world, but as parents we can certainly do our part, not perfect, but with love and financial imput when and where there is the need.

As a high school teacher, 'we' got the children after they had already been through a lot... been 'told' so many lies about themselves. Too many adults do not have any idea what effects even small, off-the-cuff comments have on a young psyche, how long their words may echo in that young life... Thanx for sharing, Roy! ;-)

Roy this really struck a chord with me. It's so true kids need to be nurtured, boosted with confidence and love to survive the world, otherwise things become overwhelming an difficult, both of these I believe are the foundation. Well done

This is an thoughtfully-written poem that has an important message about the essential value of children.
I like the way you accent the use of rhyme and meter.
Suggestion, which might depend on computer formatting:
and ground in mucus' timeless flood.y
I think there is a stray letter 'y' that is showing up after flood.

Before our election, the losing party was in favor of so mny abominable things like dispensing women's feminine products in boy's rest rooms in case some of them felt like a woman, and tons of other things. I am sorry for this generation whose innocence is stripped from them, and who need The Lord now more than ever.

You are correct about wounded children; there are so many different ways in which they can be hurt. Their health definitely affects the future of nations. Good rhymes, and great Scriptures. Thanks for sharing this. Carol
