These are really 3 poems that described a character in the book I will someday write and are his torrent against his parents

***************************************************

His words

My love said to me, I am your love to be
I've loved you more than I can say
But give me your hand
And walk to that tree
Then I will give my own love to thee"

Parents

A flush of swirling dress
Mists the sense with rest
The wind will carry tales from on high
One to learned men,
One to men that bend
And one just for the men that ply

His betrayal by his parents

I stand in the temple and you are wrong
I stand on the hill and shout betrayed
I lie in the valley and you walk over me
You will never kill me
As long as people live, I am the defender of the shadows
You ask me for my reasons to love
I ask for your love of me, let me love.

(big angel hugs) What makes me afraid is how though no child should be abused and never should be neglected and pity should be brought upon those so-called "parents" who do, that I always fear the anger dominates a child's heart and then they grow to become their parents, depending on how they take the emotions! (wipes tears) I pray that the ultimate conclusion can be the children just feel sadness and can temper the anger away so they can grow to be pure compassionate and open-hearted and forgiving, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Dave, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
