I am a pitbull some might say, but have a tender heart I wonder about internet, of wich we all take part I hear the music in your words, when I read all your rhymes I see the laughter on your face, when you read mine sometimes I want to write good English poems, but I am not so smart I am a pitbull some might say, but have a tender heart I pretend I make a difference, in all the things I do I feel the burden of all sorrows, even those of you I touch the soul of someone far, hope it will touch me back I worry ‘bout my gain of weight, cause I love every snack I cry when children die of thirst, it isn’t a good start I am a pitbull some might say, but have a tender heart I understand staying up late, will undermine my health I say difference should be less, b’tween poverty and wealth I dream the world would come to be, a better place for all I try to fight for all things worth, but I am just too small I hope we’ll always stay connected, through the words of art I am a pitbull some might say, but have a tender heart Like scattered leaves...my words will flow |

Hugs to all of you, my dear friends and Dutch knuffels too. Yes, sometimes I'm a pitbull when it comes to fighting for something I believe in or when I see someone has set truth on a detour But most of the time I'm just a little puppy. Titia Like scattered leaves...my words will flow |

a pitbull can be a puppy, and a puppy can be a pitbull. Both have qualities to admire, enjoyed the poem. |
