Slightly crazy writer and passionate educator for those who struggle
Children should be loved
And cherished
Their life a happy playground
Their problems should be small or smaller
Food always on the table
Oh No!
I forgot to clean my room
I did not eat my veges
I climbed atop the trampoline
And fell into my parent’s arms
All was well, I broke a bone
But love was all around me.
That’s the childhood I always knew
Until I started teaching
And even after many years
You still come across a story
That makes you ache deep in your heart
And try to help another.
Too sad the story I have to tell
To raw to let the reader know it
Perhaps one day,
With some distance
I’ll tell this young child’s tale
But not today
And not tomorrow
For this child is still living in the story
And there is no fairy tale ending.
Yes, just keep loving the child. Time for telling another day.

And one day I will tell it – but too close at the moment.
