The little Children ©Tony
Fallon 011218
Many adults don’t realize you
can be firm yet gentle
In your chosen profession of
being parental
Many children grow up in settings
that are wrong
Yet turn into adults who are
dependable and strong.
Made to do the work and
duties of adults
Frightened by curses
accusations and insults
No matter how well they did
they were corrected
When they should be loved
they were neglected
Children who were hit without
any excuses
By abusive parents dishing
out abuses.
Being told everything bad was
their fault
As an excuse for another
senseless assault
Threatened that if they’d go
outside and tell
They were disobedient and
going straight to hell
Going to school and making up
excuses
For all the many suspicious
cuts and bruises
Held to obedience by only
threats and guilt
How can relationships like
this ever be rebuilt?
The love a child can have for
them must be faint
And to forgive them later
they must be a saint
