Linda you have filled my eyes with tears as I know this happens far too often. It is so hard to imagine an innocent child that can't defend themselves against a coward who would never stand up to a man.
Thank you for sharing.

Maybe it was better baby Rocked outta there. Now that old Daddy needs a rocking--like a big boulder smashed against the side of his worthless head!!!

The saddest part of this piece is knowing the scenario is real and that it happens every day. This poem exemplifies the horror from a child's point of view. I truly hope this is not autobiographical. In either case, it is well done.

You do these so well, Linda, and bring home the horror of abuse.
Well done.

Blood red with sadness...well written...sometimes little ones are better in the arms of angels...sad to say daddy was not.

How sad this poem is because of the too-often truth it reveals. And I have a feeling a lot of this kind of stuff goes unreported unless it ends the way this poem ends.

I am sure that it is not forgiveness, even after repentance, for those that practiced Hell upon their children, because the Lord said it "harm one of my children and you will no enter in my house"

Linda,

Oh, this one hurts: gets in and makes the reader wish they could rescue the abused little ones in this heartbreaking poem. Well done, nobody writes 'em like you do.

(((HUGS))), love and prayer, Karla. *tears*

Far too many haunted children, and you tell their horrid tale so very well, Linda.

Linda this is seriously sad but beautifully written..

You've brought tears to my eyes this morning with this tragic but all too often realistic write. Just watched on the news where a father was sentenced due beating his five month old child to death! We live in a world full of sick people. Drugs has destroyed our nation for the most part...I can imagine satan laughing at those whom he has already destroyed, I wonder how much more the Lord will be able to stand before He sends His angel to sound the trumpet to gather His people. I also wonder about the multitude of children that will be in heaven...millions no doubt! You've penned a heart touching write here my friend...so glad that we have the arms of Jesus to rest in when life gets too hard and later to rest eternally! Wonderful offering!
Blessings,

Sad, but unfortunately a sad reality that happens all too often.
