Never should a child grow up being hurt in any form or be afraid and unloved. That's not a childhood. Thank you for sharing this club entry with us. This is a subject that gets my ire up. I saw too much of it when I was teaching at my last school.

Comment from Mike Stevens
Another fine poem, Gypsy, and one that should speak about every child but no longer does. The world we are leaving for our children is one full of things to be afraid of, like being mowed down at school. Our priority should be in keeping children safe, but isn't any longer

A sad but a poem of encouragement and hope. One can almost feel the warmth of arms holding on in comfort.
Beautiful and powerful words..
Best wishes

As usual this is a visually striking work that borders on a digital painting with a powerful message to one's self. The picture is amazing. What wonderfully thought out piece. I wish I had a six for you. Best of luck with your writing!
Have a great day, and God bless.

Hi MariVal
This poem is sad and also provides hope. It uses line breaks well to enhance the emotional effect of the poem.
Child sexual and verbal abuse should never happen. If the child can feel God's presence in the future it will give her the strength to heal and have a somewhat 'normal' life.
Keep writing and stay healthy.
Enjoy the rest of the week,
Joan

Beautiful and heartfelt poem... Yes, there seems to be so much that goes on with children that we are never made aware of. This really tore at my heartstrings. So welcome written dearest Gypsy... Made me cry,

So exquisite it brought tears to my eyes...
I'm kind of my overwhelmed...
I wish someone had whispered these loving and healing words to the many of us who have little children still pressing their lips together...
Secrets will corrode innocence like cancer!

I have to send you a virtual six for this poem. Beautifully written and the words make a mama's heart cherish her little girl forever. What is it about a child that makes life so forlorn?
