Daddy, Why? (poem) by Linda M Hill on AuthorsDen

Reviewed on November 30, 2004

Bless you Linda.
I have spent my years working to protec children from abuse. First it was child theft, then child assaults, then children sexually abused. Why oh Why?
Dad's beware - the love of a daughter is wonderful and deep - dont abuse that trust.
Best wishes
Miller

Wow again Linda,
I'm trying to get all your poems read and reviewed but finding your painful but true to life writings need be read slowly or the hurt is too hard to bear.

Linda,
Excellent Poem-BRAVA! You bring out the horrors of Child Abuse! I bet you have been wondering where I have been?Well,about 11 weeks ago our home computer ethernet card got fried during a thunderstorm and electrical storm. We had to wait till a friend of mine loaned me the money as my Christmas Gift a little early. Now I have my very own COMPUTER!
So,I apologize for not reviewing you. I will start again until I get my renewal memebership paid. Things have been tight.
Could you say a prayer for me?-I already had my 1st brainstem tumor taken out in 1997 and that one was diagnosed in 1989.
On Thursday, the 12th of August,I had my 2nd brain lesion in the Parietal lobe discovered on Open MRI. The Nurse for the Neurosurgeon called today, basically it is hopeless and she gave me about a year left to live,I told her to "GO TO H***". I am determind to keep my faith!
Love you much!
Becca

You are all heart.
Your words need to get out in that world so badly.
Here at the Den we poets are preaching to the choir.
Hardly a bad one in the bunch I'm sure.
You have to be heard...out there.
I don't know how, I just know.
Love,
John

These children do think they are the bad one's.
Parents have no compassion anymore.
A self centered world today hurts a many child.
Great, but sad write good friend.

A deeply disturbing and distraught write that covers an all too familiar subject , in today's modern and Godless society !!

Honestly and professionally handled Linda , in what is a difficult
topic to address in any case .
